Resumen
AbstractObjectiveTo estimate changes in taxed and untaxed beverages by volume of beverage purchased after a sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) tax was introduced in 2014 in Mexico.DesignWe used household purchase data from January 2012 to December 2015. We first classified the sample into four groups based on pre-tax purchases of beverages: (i) higher purchases of taxed beverages and lower purchases of untaxed beverages (HTLU-unhealthier); (ii) higher purchases of both types of beverages (HTHU); (iii) lower purchases of taxed and untaxed beverages (LTLU); and (iv) lower purchases of taxed beverages and higher purchases of untaxed beverages (LTHU-healthier). Next, we estimated differences in purchases after the tax was implemented for each group compared with a counterfactual based on pre-tax trends using a fixed-effects model.SettingAreas with more than 50 000 residents in Mexico.ParticipantsHouseholds (n 6089).ResultsThe HTLU-unhealthier and HTHU groups had the largest absolute and relative reductions in taxed beverages and increased their purchases of untaxed beverages. Households with lower purchases of untaxed beverages (HTLU-unhealthier and LTLU) had the largest absolute and relative increases in untaxed beverages. We also found that among households with higher purchases of taxed beverages, the group with lowest socio-economic status had the greatest reduction in purchases of taxed beverages.ConclusionsEvidence associating the SSB tax with larger reductions among high purchasers of taxed beverages prior to the tax is relevant, as higher SSB purchasers have a greater risk of obesity, diabetes and other cardiometabolic outcomes.

Resumen
AbstractA generalized Heckman model of purchase decisions incorporating perceived consumer quality attributes, ease of purchase, and familiarity with marketing outlets as factors influencing pecan purchases is estimated. Marketing efforts that encourage consumers to expand expenditures on nut products increase both the probability of pecan purchases and the amount purchased. Consumers who use all types of nuts in a wider variety of foods tend to purchase pecans more frequently. A diverse set of marketing outlets provides consumers with convenient sources for purchasing pecans and has a significant influence on the probability of pecan purchases but not the amount of pecans purchased.

Resumen
Purpose An extended period of economic growth along with stubborn childhood stunting and wasting levels raises questions about how consumer food purchasing behaviors respond to income increases in Rwanda. The purpose of this paper is to assess the role income, prices, policy, agricultural production, and market access play on how rural households purchase different food groups. Design/methodology/approach Six separate log-normal double hurdle models are run on six different food groups to examine what affects the probability a household purchases in each food group and for those who do purchase, what determines the quantity purchased. Findings Rural Rwandans are price and expenditure responsive but prices have more impact on food group purchases. Crop production resulted in reduced household market procurement for its associated food group but had mixed effects on the purchases of all other food groups. Rural Rwandans purchase and consume low amounts of animal-based proteins which may be a leading factor related to the high stunting and wasting rates. Owning an animal increased the purchased quantity of meat but lowered the purchased quantity of most other food groups. Practical implications Results suggest that policies and programs have to address multiple constraints simultaneously to increase the purchases of the limited food groups in the rural household diets that may be contributing to the high rates of stunting and wasting. Originality/value This study is the first to evaluate the interplay among prices, household income, household production, policies and donor programs, and demographic variables on rural Rwandan household food purchases.

Resumen
We report on a natural field experiment on quantity discounts involving more than 14 million consumers. Implementing price reductions ranging from 9–70% for large purchases, we found remarkably little impact on revenue, either positively or negatively. There was virtually no increase in the quantity of customers making a purchase; all the observed changes occurred for customers who already were buyers. We found evidence that infrequent purchasers are more responsive to discounts than frequent purchasers. There was some evidence of habit formation when prices returned to pre-experiment levels. There also was some evidence that consumers contemplating small purchases are discouraged by the presence of extreme quantity discounts for large purchases.

Resumen
Abstract Objectives To support the work of the Australian federal governments proposed sodium reformulation targets, this study sought to identify the relative contribution that different food companies and their products make to household sodium purchases in Australia. We also examined differences in household sodium purchases from packaged foods and beverages by income level. Methods We used one year of grocery purchase data from a nationally representative consumer panel of Australian households who reported their grocery purchases (the Nielsen Homescan panel), combined with a packaged food and beverage database (FoodSwitch) that contains brand- and product-specific sodium information. Outcome measures were sodium purchases per capita (mg/day), sodium density (mg/1000 kcal), and purchase-weighted sodium content (mg/100 g). The top food companies and food categories were ranked according to their contribution to household sodium purchases. Per capita sodium purchases was estimated in household income strata. All analyses were modeled to the Australian population in 2018 using sample weights. Results Sodium data were available from 7188 households who purchased 26,728 unique products and, in total, just under 7.5 million units of foods and beverages. The total sodium acquired from packaged foods and beverages was 1443 mg/day per capita. Out of 1329 food companies, the top 10 accounted for 58% of all sodium purchased from packaged foods and beverages. The top three companies were grocery food retailers each contributing 12–15% of sodium purchases from sales of their private label products, particularly processed meat, cheese and bread. Out of the 67 food categories, the top 10 accounted for 73% of sodium purchased, driven by purchases of processed meat (14%), bread (12%) and sauces (11%). Low-income Australian households purchased substantially more sodium from packaged products than high-income households per capita (220 mg/d, 95% CI: 132–307 mg/d, P < 0.001). Conclusions A small number of food companies and food categories account for the majority of dietary sodium purchased by Australian households. There is an opportunity for governments to prioritize engagement and incentivize key companies and food categories to deliver a large reduction in sodium intake and reduce cardiovascular disease.

Resumen
Where people shop for food is often linked to the healthiness of food purchases. In Mexico, no research has examined the connection between where people shop, what they buy, and their socioeconomic status (SES). Mexico’s sugary beverage and junk food taxes have made households decrease purchases of taxed products. However, whether households have changed where they shop is unknown. To address this gap, we use a repeated cross-sectional analysis of household packaged food and beverage purchases from the Nielsen Mexico Consumer Panel Survey from 2012 to 2015 (n > 5500 households). We examine changes in the volume of the purchase of taxed and untaxed products from different store-types (i.e., convenience stores, supermarkets, traditional retailers, wholesalers, home water-delivery, and others) by SES using multivariate linear regression models. Results show that high-SES households purchased more foods and beverages at all store-types except for low-SES who purchased the most foods and taxed beverages at traditional retailers. Purchases of taxed foods and beverages from traditional retailers significantly decreased for low-SES and middle-SES households and from supermarkets for middle-SES and high-SES households. Purchases of untaxed beverages from wholesalers significantly increased for middle-SES households and from convenience stores for high-SES households. Our findings suggest that consumers choose different stores to purchase beverages than to purchase foods and that taxes may have differentially affected each store-type.

Resumen
IntroductionTo examine the prevalence and patterns of tobacco purchases at low-income, urban corner stores.MethodsData on tobacco products and other purchases were collected through direct observation of customers’ purchases (n=6369) at 120 urban corner stores in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, from April to September 2012.ResultsOverall 13% of corner store purchases included tobacco products. The majority (61%) of tobacco purchases did not include any other products, and 5.1% of all purchases from corner stores included a food or beverage and tobacco product. Approximately 24% of tobacco purchases were for lower-cost tobacco products such as cigars and cigarillos, and nearly 5% of tobacco purchases were an illegal purchase of a single, unpackaged tobacco product that is not intended for individual sale (ie, loosies). There was no difference in the average amount spent on food or beverages when purchased with (US$2.55, 95% CI: 2.21 to 2.88) or without (US$2.55, 95% CI: 2.48 to 2.63) tobacco products.ConclusionsIn low-income, urban corner store settings, 87% of purchases did not include tobacco; most tobacco purchases did not include the sale of non-tobacco items and spending on non-tobacco items was similar whether or not tobacco was purchased. These findings can help inform retail-level tobacco sales decisions, such as voluntary discontinuation of tobacco products or future public health policies that target tobacco sales. The results challenge prevailing assumptions that tobacco sales are associated with sales of other products in corner stores, such as food and beverages.

Resumen
Although major advances have been made in relation to explaining the supply side of the informal economy, this is not the case for the demand-side of the informal economy. This study analyses for the first time the purchasers of undeclared goods and services in the healthcare sector. To evaluate the purchase of undeclared healthcare goods and services, logistic regression analysis and robustness tests are used on 3048 interviews in Cyprus, Greece, Italy and Malta. The finding is that an important share of the purchasers make this type of purchase unknowingly. However, no difference in terms of socio-economics characteristics of those who knowingly and those who unknowingly made purchases of undeclared healthcare goods and services was identified. Meanwhile a significant influence of trust (in government and in other citizens) has been identified in relation to those who made these purchases knowingly. As such, policy measures aimed at decreasing unknowing purchases and at nurturing trust are discussed in the concluding section.

Resumen
Abstract Objectives Chile's 2016 on food labeling and advertising reduced household (HH) sugary drink purchases by 24%. However, it is unclear if this regulation was also associated with a subsequent increase in non-calorically sweetened (NCS) beverage purchases, nor who is most likely to be a top consumer of NCS beverages. Methods We used longitudinal monthly-level data from Kantar WorldPanel Chile 2015–2017 (HH = 2383) linked to yearly updated nutrition facts panel data to examine changes in NCS beverage purchases from the pre-implementation period (January 2015-June 2016) to the post-implementation period (July 2016-December 2017). Beverages were categorized into 4 mutually exclusive groups: CS: sweetened with caloric sweeteners, NCS: sweetened with non-caloric sweeteners, CS + NCS: sweetened with both sweeteners, and unsweetened. For the pre-implementation period, we used multinomial logistic regression to model HH sociodemographic predictors (head of HH educational level, HH assets, HH composition and region) of being in tertiles of NCS beverages volume purchased. We estimated the changes in beverage volume purchases between pre- and post-implementation using linear regression models adjusted for HH sociodemographic characteristics and month of data collection to account for seasonality. Results HH with higher education (35%) and HH assets (38%) were more likely to be high NCS beverages purchasers, while HH with lower education (37%) and HH assets (42%) were more likely to be low NCS beverages purchasers. After policy implementation, volume of purchases of NCS beverages increased by 6.2 mL/capita/day (95% CI: 4.7, 7.6), while volume of CS, CS + NCS and unsweetened beverages purchases decreased by 24.6 mL (95% CI: −27.5, −21.7), 4.3 mL (95% CI: −6.4, −2.2) and 16.4 mL (95% CI: −20.8, −12.1), respectively. Conclusions In Chile, people of high SES purchase more NCS beverages. After policy implementation, the volume of CS, NCS + CS and unsweetened beverages decreased while the volume of NCS sweetened beverages increased.

Resumen
Abstract Purpose: This study examines how directors’ stock-purchase transactions would result in stock performance, assessing whether directors’ stock-purchase transactions are rapidly reflected in stock prices in Colombo Stock Exchange, Sri Lanka. Moreover, it studies how stock-purchase transactions based on directors’ gender, would result in stock performance. Research Methodology: The analysis covers a period from March 2013 to March 2019, and includes 141 directors’ stock purchases. Research issues are investigated using an event-study methodology. Results: Significant negative abnormal returns follow directors’ stock-purchase transactions, which indicates they are not rapidly reflected in stock prices. Gender-wise, male directors’ stock-purchase transactions result in significantly negative abnormal returns, whereas for its female counterpart, no significantly abnormal returns are observed. Further, both male and female directors’ stock-purchase transactions are not rapidly reflected in stock prices. Limitation: The study does not consider the number of shares purchased. Certain director stock purchases have to be omitted due to a lack of data. Contribution: Policy-makers could implement actions to prevent harmful trading activities and to improve the reporting timelines of directors' stock purchases. Consequently, the information asymmetry could be minimized. Hence, investors could engage in stock purchases confidently, which results in mitigating the company’s cost of capital.

Resumen
Abstract   As accurately as possible, creditors wish to determine if a potential debtor will repay the borrowed sum. To achieve this mathematical models known as credit scorecards quantifying the risk of default are used. In this study it is investigated whether the scorecard can be improved by using reject inference and thereby include the characteristics of the rejected population when refining the scorecard. The reject inference method used is parcelling. Logistic regression is used to estimate probability of default based on applicant characteristics. Two models, one with and one without reject inference, are compared using Gini coefficient and estimated profitability. The results yield that, when comparing the two models, the model with reject inference both has a slightly higher Gini coefficient as well a showing an increase in profitability. Thus, this study suggests that reject inference does improve the predictive power of the scorecard, but in order to verify the results additional testing on a larger calibration set is needed

Resumen
Rational choice theory provides a blueprint for predicting individual behavior under the assumption that objectives and decisions are rationally identified and executed. Under certain conditions, actions reveal preferences and the ability to observe these preferences allows for the possibility to study the effects of subtle changes in individual constraints such as price and wealth affect preferences. For instance, recent work by Eckel and Grossman (2003), Davis, Millner and Reilly (2003), and Davis and Millner (2004) observe a preference for matching promotions over coupon rebates even when the two promotions types are strictly equivalent. An important question remaining is whether this result persists. This paper analyzes whether this seemingly anomalous behavior persists as individuals gain experience through repeated decisions in a controlled environment.

Resumen
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the advantages and disadvantages of the method of one-click purchasing. One-click purchasing is a method allowing the customers to transact a purchase with only one click. The customer has entered the payment information necessary to complete the purchase at a previous occasion. Within the next buying opportunity, the customer can purchase products with one single click. The analysis and conclusions is based on both primary and secondary sources. The primary sources represent the result of a questionnaire performed with 200 respondents. The survey showed that the most common advantages with the method was fast, smooth, easy and time efficient. The disadvantages on the other hand were more varying and included cons such as uncertain, unreliable, risk-taking, page hacking, fraud and identity hijacking. The conclusion is therefore that the disadvantages are in grater number and also more shifting, which means that the perception of the one-click purchasing method tends to be more negative.

Resumen
Attention on impulsive buying behavior has been increased from both researchers and marketers, as the negative consumption experience resulting from this unplanned buying could harm the business severely in terms of brand building, reputation as well as a loss of customer. By reviewing previous literatures, we have identified that there is still little research about the post-consumer behavior of impulse purchases, namely on consumers’ regret triggered from what they have bought impulsively. The purpose of this study is to discover the triggers of buyer regret from impulse purchase, which is presented by the research question “What are the triggers of buyer regret from impulse purchases?” By conducting a quantitative research, we proposed a conceptual model of impulse purchase regret that consists of six hypotheses. The technical tool that we used to test the conceptual model is a SPSS extension called AMOS, whereas the analysis method uses the application of structural equation modeling. We collected our primary data (187 viable responses) via a questionnaire through convenience sampling. By testing all the data with AMOS, we received the following result: 5 hypotheses are accepted and 1 hypothesis is rejected. This result indicates that upwards counterfactual thinking (CFT) on forgone alternatives, a change in significance, and under consideration are positively related to impulse purchase regret; external stimuli and consumer susceptibility to interpersonal influence (CSII) have indirect influence on impulse purchase regret. By applying our theoretical background to analyze the result, we suggest that consumer’s rational buying thinking still plays an important role in post evaluation stage of impulse purchase, even though it disrupts the rational buying process in the beginning. Lastly, we believe that several parties could benefit from our research, they are marketing, academia as well as consumers.

I analyze the impact that large-scale Mortgage Backed Securities (MBS) purchases carried by the Federal Reserve in response to the financial crisis had in the economy and find that they were able to enhance confidence in financial markets and influence MBS pricing. Default probabilities of financial companies fell 33 basis points, which can be explained by the lower quantity of MBS in their balance sheets and the increased value of the MBS remaining in their asset side. The default risk premium of MBS decreased 66 basis points, which represents 22% of the reduction in MBS yields in the period analyzed.

Resumen
The study investigated South African men s clothing involvement and the possible influences of various factors such as demographic characteristics, expenditure on clothing, the frequency of clothing purchases, store patronage and men s work dress code. A survey was conducted across Gauteng which is the largest retail hub in South Africa with mainly urban areas. Most consumers in Gauteng have access to different clothing retailers. Consulta Research, a professional research company assisted with data collection. Data was collected by means of convenient sampling. Online questionnaires were distributed to their data base and a total of 479 usable questionnaires were completed. Data analysis consisted of descriptive statistics, exploratory factor analysis, ANOVA s, Chi square tests and other post hoc tests. The study confirmed that men clothing involvement is not equally strong for all four dimensions of clothing involvement that are distinguished in literature. Previous studies suggested that involvement should be studied from an age ordering perspective, and therefore respondents demographic characteristics were vital in terms of the analysis of the data. Certain demographic characteristics seemed to be good indicators of men s clothing involvement, namely age and marital status while factors such as work dress code surprisingly do not seem to be useful to predict men s clothing involvement. The majority of the sample spent less than 5% of their monthly household income on clothing for themselves and indicated that they purchase clothing sporadically when necessary. Findings nevertheless indicated that expenditure on their clothing and frequency of clothing purchases are useful indicators of men s clothing involvement. Although younger men (generation Y) were more inclined to patronise specialised men s clothing retailers, irrespective of their work dress code, the majority of men patronised general retailers and department stores when purchasing their clothing. Findings confirm that consumption- and purchase involvement are the prevalent forms of clothing involvement that are relevant in terms of men s clothing behaviour. Indications are that men s advertising involvement is not particularly strong, which implies that they gain their product information and fashion information from alternative sources that rather relates to purchase involvement which tested high in most cases. This has implications for retail because men s stronger purchase involvement probably means that the physical retail environment is more important in terms of fashion information and to inspire men s clothing purchases. Therefore retailers should focus more on factors that make in-store decisions easier for males such as displays and placement of clothing. Male apparel is a potentially lucrative and growing market that can be even more profitable. Younger men spend more on their clothing therefore this group should therefore take preference but the older men should not be forgotten. Based on the findings of this study various recommendations are made with a large focus to either expand this study or build onto this existing research. Topics related to male clothing and involvement of clothing can definitely be built on and studied more in the apparel industry to fill a gap on knowledge that is lacking and should be explored further.

Resumen
The methods in which e-books can be purchased vary greatly compared to print books. In the past, a print book was purchased either as an individual title (firm order) or through an approval plan. Once the books were received, there was little deviation in how the items were processed – purchase orders were created, books were processed, invoices were input and paid. However, with e-books, the work is more complex and there are a many ways to purchase e-books – firm order, Demand (or Patron) Driven Acquisiton (DDA), Evidence Based Acquisition (EBA), yearly front-file purchases, back-file purchases, or subscription to e-book packages. Each of the methods involves a workflow that goes from easy to somewhat complex. This begs the question of whether the acquisitions workflow can or should influence how e-books are purchased.

Resumen
People often try to spend as little as possible when shopping at a supermarket. Many people can not reduce their costs when buying, either because of lack of time to research or because of the wide variety of products and prices. This article presents the Superpagg software, whose main objective is to help people to spend less on purchases in supermarkets by comparing the prices of different products in different supermarkets, so that the user can see where to pay less for the same products, allowing them to make their purchases with more economy. The results obtained were that the information presented by the software, using a limited sampling, is that the consumer saves from 2.01% to 17.64% monthly per product purchased.

Resumen
In the public sector, the optimization of procurement is the most important lever to increase efficiency. The purchase of goods and services make up the bulk of government spending, that is, the optimization of procurement can signifi cantly reduce budget expenditures. The effect of optimizing purchases is not limited to saving money. This tool is able to provide public institutions with a number of intangible advantages, one of which is transparency. Having accurate information about where and how much money is spent, as well as using simple standardized procedures for managing budget expenditures, managers can make more rational decisions. With balanced regulation of purchased goods through government orders, it can have a positive impact on pricing for certain types of products, giving it a certain flexibility. These circumstances determine the relevance of the study of the role of public procurement in the development of economic regulation of the economic system, the problems of forming theoretical, methodological and practical foundations of relevant qualitative changes in the field of public contracts

Resumen
Background: Medical cannabis (MC) use is rising with limited clinical data to support products and dosing for specific conditions. This study relies on observational data to examine MC purchases across time, and to assess dosing trajectories for different conditions. Methods: A retrospective study of MC patients of dispensaries located in New York (NY). This study relies on secondary analysis of point-of-sale (POS) invoice data from 16,727 unique patients with 79,885 purchases between 2016-2019. Group-based-trajectory modeling (GBTM) was used to identify clusters of MC patients following similar progressions in potency utilization (e.g., THC and CBD) over time. Multinomial logit models were estimated to identify group membership based on patient level characteristics and qualifying medical conditions. Results: Six distinct trajectory groups were identified. Four of the groups compromised (75%), (39.9%), (8.2%), and (8.5%) of the population and purchased a steady dosage (ranging from low to high) of THC over time. The fifth (14.9%) and sixth group (10.1%) demonstrated MC patients who gradually increased their THC dosage across time. Patient characteristics and qualifying medical conditions for MC use were strong predictors of group membership. Men, older individuals, and those with a qualifying pain condition were more likely to be part of a group that consumed higher doses of THC across time, compared to other reference groups. Conclusion: This study identified distinctive trajectories of monthly THC and CBD potency levels purchased, and factors associated with these trajectories. Examining MC purchasing patterns over time may help understand whether MC treatment works, subgroups of MC patients, and risk factors. This study pioneer’s analysis of POS data, which could help guide policy decisions to effectively monitor MC use, aid in the design of future MC programs and target prevention efforts. This study provides a strong foundation upon which that research can build by utilizing new-technologically advanced sales data sets.

Resumen
Government purchases are the usual instrument for public acquisition of goods and services. Despite extensive legislation and several control and auditing mechanisms, frauds are still diverse and commonplace at all levels of public administration. This work proposes a methodology for detecting anomalies in government purchases. The methodology promotes several levels of filtering with respect to entities involved and purchases considered as fraudulent considering diverse criteria. The applicability and effectiveness of the methodology is demonstrated through a case study using real data where we were able to identify a long term provider collusion.

Texto completo
Resumen
The theoretical literature on term structure models emphasises the importance of the expected absorption of duration risk during the residual life of term bonds in order to understand the yield curve effect of central banks’ government bond purchases. Motivated by this, we develop a forward-looking, long-horizon measure of euro area government bond supply net of Eurosystem holdings, and use it to estimate the impact of the ECB’s asset purchase programmes in the context of a no-arbitrage affine term structure model. We find that an asset purchase shock equivalent to 10% of euro area GDP lowers the 10-year average yield of the euro area big four by 59 basis points (bp) and the associated term premium by 50 bp. Applying the model to the risk-free (OIS) yield curve, the same shock lowers the 10-year rate and term premium by 35 and 26 bp, respectively.

Resumen
The aim of this report is to explore Northern Ireland take home food and drink purchases in 2016, 2019 and 2020. In 2020, due to the Covid-19 restrictions, the purchasing of take home food and drink may have been impacted. Therefore, this report will examine the data to identify any key trends in purchasing in 2016 and 2019 (before the Covid-19 pandemic), and then between 2019 and 2020. However, as this study is based on observations, it is not possible to know what may have caused changes in take home food and drink purchasing. It is important to remember that data in 2019 and 2020 are not directly comparable due to Covid-19 restrictions, as the majority of the out of home sector was closed and therefore an increase in take home purchasing is expected to replace the food and drink that would have been purchased outside of the home. The analyses within this report have been conducted by the FSA in Northern Ireland with guidance from Kantar. Data presented within this report was collected in 2016 (52 weeks ending 1st January 2017), 2019 (52 weeks ending 29th December 2019) and 2020 (52 weeks ending 27th December 2020).
