| Summary: | Using panel data for Peru for 1994-2000,
the authors find that when households receive two, or more
services jointly, the welfare increases as measured by
changes in consumption are larger than when services are
provided separately. The increases appear to be more than
proportional, as F-tests on the coefficients of the
corresponding regressors confirm. Thus, the authors find
that bundling services may help realize welfare effects. |
