摘要
根据中国城镇居民的分组数据,居民收入差距是平均消费倾向下降的原因,但不能解释消费倾向的主要变化,这很可能与高收入者的统计数据不准确有关。从现实看,居民收入差距是消费倾向下降的关键原因;城镇居民消费倾向不断下降的因素是多方面的,中国城镇居民消费行为更符合凯恩斯的绝对收入假说,预防性储蓄并不能完全说明居民消费倾向的变化。
Based on the grouped data of Chinese urban households, income gap is the reason of the decline of average propensity to consume ( APC), but it cannot explain the main changes of consumption propensity because the statistical data of the high income households may be inaccu- rate. In reality, income gap is the key factor which leads to the decline of consumption propensity. There are other different factors which may lead to the decline. Comparatively speaking, the con- sumption behavior of Chinese urban households better suits Keynes' absolute income hypothesis, and precautionary savings cannot fully explain the change of consumption propensity.
