Abstract
AbstractThis paper presents a structural approach to estimating the value of home production in China. The structural model incorporates stylized facts about the time allocation of Chinese households, such as the active participation of retired individuals in home production. Estimates based on the China Health and Nutrition Survey show that the aggregate value of home production as a fraction of adjusted GDP have fallen at a rate of 2.7 percent per year over the past decade in China. However, a significant part of China's private consumption was still satisfied through unpaid home production in 2009, amounting to roughly 18 percent of adjusted GDP.
