12 What is the relationship between income, prices, time use and nutrition? Poorer and lower socio-economic households eat fewer healthy foods (fruit and vegetables, whole grains...) have higher prevalence of obesity and other diet-related disease what is the relationship between income and nutrition does low income cause poor nutrition? correlated preference heterogeneity? do poorer households face different prices or different supply conditions? is time use important, and potentially related to work? 8 / 45
13 Food deserts? It is well documented that healthy foods are less likely to be available in stores in lower-income neighbourhoods Campaigners, policy makers and research have interpreted this lack of supply ( food deserts ) as a cause of less healthy eating amongst low income households Several papers fail to find a causal effect (e.g. Handbury, Rahkovsky and Schnell, 2015; Cummins, Flint and Matthews, 2014; Dubowitz et al., 2015; Kozlova, 2016; Allcott, Diamond and Dube, 2017) i.e. changes in local supply has a limited effect 9 / 45
14 A structural analysis of the decline of home-cooked food with Thomas Crossley, Wenchao (Michelle) Jin and Valérie Lechene 10 / 45
15 Motivation There has been a large shift away from home-cooked food towards ready-to-eat food this has been proposed as one of the likely causes of the growth in obesity and decline in the nutritional quality of diets Understanding what has driven this change might help us design better policy it has been associated with changes in prices household structures time use and labour market behaviour of secondary earners 11 / 45
16 Increase in ready-to-eat food, UK 12 / 45
17 Increase in ready-to-eat food, UK 13 / 45
18 Prices of ready-to-eat foods and ingredients 14 / 45
19 Food choices, price, time use and nutrition We model food choices considering time use in food preparation and work home cooked food requires time Households have heterogenous time costs Households differ in size potential economies of scale in food production and consumption 15 / 45
20 16 / 45
21 Model Structural model of food consumption and time use, with home production cost of home cooked food based on shadow price, incorporating opportunity cost of time and returns to scale to food preparation We are interested in choice between home cooked foods (combine time and ingredients) and ready-to-eat foods (requiring little or no preparation time) The model incorporates trade offs: on the consumption side: between purchasing ingredients for cooking or purchasing processed foods on the time use side: between working to earn income, cooking and leisure 17 / 45
22 Model We are particularly interested in the impact of increased labour force participation, hours and real wages of secondary earners this leads to a higher opportunity cost of time for cooking We are also interested in effects of reduction in household size reduced returns to scale 18 / 45
23 Women labour force participation Hours of work of spouses Conditional on participation Average real wages Relative to January Men Women 19 / 45
24 Model overview Households contain two adults, s = 1, 2, and any number of children, n = 2 + K Adults allocate time between market work h s, cooking t s and leisure l s Utility is derived from f, private food good x: (possibly) public, non-food non-durable good l: leisure Food is either purchased ready to eat r or home produced c by combining ingredients i and time t Primary earner s working hours are assumed to be constrained 20 / 45
25 Household utility Unitary model with fixed weights c : home cooked food ( c max : nu c,r,x,l n, r n, x n θ, l ) n r : ready-to-eat food (processed, restaurant, snacks) x : non-food non-durable θ [0, 1] : returns to scale to the non-food good l = l 1 + l 2 : leisure time c and r are not perfect substitutes in preferences 21 / 45
26 Home production of food c : home cooked food i : ingredients [ c i n = min n, Bt ] n γ t = t 1 + t 2 : time spent cooking; B transforms units γ [0, 1] : returns to scale in cooking i and t are complements in home production (Hamermesh, 2008) Technology is linear homogenous in t and i, but not in n a home-cooked meal for two takes less than twice the time required to prepare a meal for one t 1 and t 2 are perfect substitutes in production 22 / 45
27 Budget constraint and time constraints p r r + p i i + p x x = y 0 + w 1 h 1 + w 2 h 2, T h 1 = l 1 + t 1 T = h 2 + t 2 + l 2 r : ready to eat food, i : ingredients, x : outside good market price p r, p i, p x y 0 : unearned income, w j : wage of j = 1, 2 time of j = 1, 2 hj : hours of work, primary earner s hours are constrained h 1 t j : time spent cooking lj : leisure Hours Constraint 23 / 45
28 Leontief assumption The Leontief assumption for home production of food yields: c n = i n = Bt n γ The assumption that the time inputs are perfect substitutes in the production of home cooked food yields that there is one price for the time input t this is the opportunity cost of the secondary earner, the household member who is not constrained on the labour market, w 2 If the constrained individual reallocates time from cooking to leisure, for a given amount of home cooked food, then the unconstrained individual reallocates time to cooking, away from either market work or leisure 24 / 45
29 Model in terms of shadow prices max c,r,x,l nu(c, r, x, l ), s.t p cc + p r r + p xx + p l l = 1 n (y 0 + w 1 h 1 + w 2 T + w 2 (T h 1 )) where p c = p i + w 2 Bn 1 γ p r = p r p x = px n 1 θ c = c n r = r n x = x n θ p l = w 2 l = l n 25 / 45
30 Predictions of the model Shadow price of home cooked food increases with higher market wages for the secondary earner potentially decreases with household size if cooking is more efficient in larger households The effects of an increase in w 2 on the share of ingredients and processed foods are ambiguous, depending e.g. on the relatives sizes of the income and substitution effects 26 / 45
31 Functional form for demand Almost Ideal Demand System: w j = p j q j (p,y,z ) Y = α j (Z ) + β j ln ( ) Y P + i δ ji ln pi + ɛ j where w j is the budget share of good j: home cooked food, processed food, restaurant, take away and snacks, non-food non-durable outside good, leisure time Full income 27 / 45
32 Data UK Family Expenditure Survey (FES/EFS): Repeated cross-section Sample of two adult households where head of household is 25-64, any number of children (including 0) Approx. 200 households per month; after cleaning and selection, about 30,000 observations Detailed information on expenditure on food (367 items) and non-food non-durable good, household composition, demographic information and incomes we map 367 food items to time use Labour supply: participation and hours worked Market prices from ONS Retail Price Index (RPI) 28 / 45
33 Potential and reservation wages We estimate a wage equation controlling for selection estimated at the individual level relating log hourly wage to individual s characteristics sex, age, age squared, marital status, occupation, household type, K, age of youngest kid, net household unearned income y 0, spouse characteristics and year We predict a potential wage and a reservation wage for each individual For participants, the value of time is the potential wage and for non participants, it is the reservation wage 29 / 45
34 Actual and predicted wages 30 / 45
35 Real wage growth 31 / 45
36 Elasticities Income elasticities: home cooked food, processed food and take away and snacks are necessities, and their income elasticities are similar restaurant meals are a luxury food altogether is a necessity, as is usual Own price elasticities are negative and significant for all foods processed food and restaurant the most price elastic, and home cooked food the least price elastic Cross price elasticities mostly make sense Marshallian Elasticities Hicksian Elasticities Engel Curves 32 / 45

40 Effect of 10% tax on processed food Ingredients 35 / 45
41 Effect of 10% tax on processed food Restaurants, take aways and snacks 36 / 45
42 Summary We develop a structural model that can recover observed trends in shares of food types A structural decomposition shows that price movements, demographic changes and labour supply and wages explain together the observed trends A tax on processed foods (at home) leads to substitution to other ready-to-eat foods Preferences or skills in food preparation? 37 / 45
43 Time use also matters for other margins It is well known that equating expenditure with consumption can lead to mistaken conclusions about how households are affected by changes in their economic environment households might adjust the amount of home production (Becker, 1965) in order to smooth their consumption households may increase their time spent searching for lower prices (Stigler, 1961) They may also change the composition of their shopping baskets (i.e. switching from a preferred branded to a cheaper generic product) to maintain the nutritional quality of their food basket 38 / 45
44 Gluttony and sloth? Calories, labour market activity and the rise of obesity with Rodrigo Lluberas and Melanie Luhrmann Real expenditure on food has increased, this has been interpreted as an increase in food consumption However, households have substituted towards more expensive foods Quantity has actually fallen Rise in obesity is rationalised by changes in energy expenditure at work and in other activities 39 / 45
45 Real expenditure on food and drink, UK 40 / 45
46 Real expenditure on food and drink, Equivalised daily % change expenditure (2005 $) All food and drink of which: Food at home Eating out, fast food, soft drinks and confectionery Alcohol / 45
47 Expenditure per 1000 calories, food at home 42 / 45
48 Expenditure and calorie shares by food groups Food at home Eating out Soft drinks and Alcohol and fast food confectionery Expenditure shares change Real expenditure per calories 43 / 45
49 Total calories 44 / 45
50 Summary Calories fell but the strenuousness of work and daily life fell by more leading to rise in obesity work and time use matter for other reasons too The relationship between income, work, time use and nutrition is still not well understood increasingly good data combined with economic theory can help us learn how to design better policy 45 / 45

52 Discussion of the constrained hours assumption Constraining hours of the primary earner implies that the shadow price of ingredients is independent from choices if not, then we need to assume diminishing marginal returns to avoid corner solutions; if CRS production, the model predicts cooking time ratio determined by the wage ratio rather than individual wages Suppose hours are not constrained: having t 1 + t 2 in the production function means that t 1 = 0 if w 1 > w 2 but primary earner does some cooking in the majority of households, so that we would need to assume i = F (t 1, t 2, 2 + K ) Back having l1 + l 2 in the household utility means l 1 = 0 if w 1 > w 2 This is unrealistic. We would need to assume that l 1 and l 2 enter utility separately. With separate leisures in preferences and separate cooking times in F, if we assume F(t 1, t 2, 2 + K ) = ψ(t 1, t 2 )G(2 + K ), the model predicts that t 1 /t 2 is determined by w 1 /w 2, which is rejected by the time use data (Jin (2013)) 45 / 45
53 Full income Back p r r + p i i + p x x + w 2 (l 2 + t 2 ) + w 2 (l 1 + t 1 ) = y 0 + w 1 h 1 + w 2 T + w 2 (T h 1 ) We observe w 1 h 1 + w 2 T + w 2 (T h 1 ) for individuals who work, and we impute a wage for non participants. But we do not observe a reliable measure of y 0. In the FES, unearned income is often negative, and we have no saving or borrowing in this model We measure full income as total weekly expenditure on all items (food plus x) plus the imputed cost of non market time (time spent cooking and for leisure (l + t) = (T h)). 45 / 45
