Abstract
The literature on inequality often focuses on household income, but this measure has several limitations for assessing individual wellbeing. Tim Obermeier develops a new collective household model which simultaneously accounts for consumption inequality within families, time use and different preferences, to measure the relationship between household income and individual wellbeing in more detail.
