Abstract:
This paper uses the living standards method to estimate the extra costs for older people with functional disabilities in urban areas in Northern China. The research finds that the cost for older people who live alone is higher than those who live with other family members, and their living standard is lower. The costs increase with the age, especially for the oldest old people who live alone. The cost for older women is higher than their male counterparts. The extra costs of support for people with functional disabilities decrease the overall living standard of the household.

Abstract:
This research describes a simple way to generate an interstate cost-of-living index from market basket data collected at the standard metropolitan statistical area (SMSA) level. Models were developed for each of four regions to explain differences in the cost of living among more than 180 SMSAs. The regression coefficients were then used as weights and combined with comparable state level data to establish a state cost-of-living index. Finally, the state cost-of-living index values were normalized so that 100 represents the national average for all states weighted by their population. In the c

Abstract:
This study examines whether the cost of living is related to the probability of living alone among unmarried persons age 65 years and older in the United States. Cost of living is measured at the metropolitan area level by the Elder Economic Security Standard Index, which takes into account geographic variability in cost of housing, food, transportation, and medical care. Using multilevel modeling, we find that higher cost of living is related to a lower likelihood of living alone net of personal resources. Results also show that the gap in the likelihood of living alone between high- and low-

The paper aims at studying the various economic aspects like unemployment rate, health care, purchasing power, cost of living and safety index of Indian economy. The data taken is secondary in nature and five years of data is studied to analyse the results. The t-test is applied to test the hypothesis and correlation analysis is done to see the comparative results. For ease of study, the factors like cost of living, purchasing power, health facilities, pollution index and safety index are averaged and categorised as Standard of Living Index.

ABSTRACT There are two ways to interpret Dorothy Parker’s “The Standard of Living” in which two lower-class women admire a necklace in an expensive jewelry store. One is that the necklace really does cost a quarter of a million dollars, as the clerk says, but the other is that he is lying to them. The support for this latter and less common interpretation is that the clerk, working in an upscale boutique on fifth avenue, would immediately be able to tell that Annabel and Midge are not the kind of people who would be able to afford the piece of jewelry in question.

This article deals with the analysis of the replacement ratio (an indicator of the relation between the average wage and the average pension). This was carried out on the basis of the analysis of pensioners’ consumer baskets and their expenditures. It proposes a more appropriate concept of the so-called real replacement ratio. The replacement ratio is often used for longterm (intergenerational) comparisons of the standard of living of pensioners. Also, the weaknesses of this indicator make such comparisons insufficiently informative. On the other hand, the so-called real replacement ratio take

Thus, if we wish to enable farmers to meet this increased demand in a sustainable way, technology pathways must be developed to convert livestock agriculture into a more circular economy.

Abstract:
This study explores the economic impact of disability on households. Disabled people face a double economic penalty though lower average disposable income and higher average expenditure needs. Conventional measures of living standards do not reflect the latter. We employ two separate methods to estimate a range of disability-adjusted ‘at risk of poverty’ (AROP) rates for Ireland. We employ first the Standard of Living method (SoL) using the Survey of Income and Living Conditions (SILC) dataset for Ireland. Based on two indicators of SoL – a composite material deprivation indicator and a self-a

Abstract:
This paper reflects on the changes induced by modifications in the Rainforest Alliance certification system that require wage transparency from plantation owners, a comparison with the local living wage benchmark, and a wage improvement plan. The paper synthesises the findings of four case studies in Brazil, Colombia, Indonesia, and Kenya, covering plantations of coffee, bananas, and tea. It finds that the socio-technological proposition is highly contested in the sector. Certification holders fear the costs of the wage improvement plans without credible long-term commitments from downstream f

Abstract:
A visa is often required for international student mobility. The costs for this vary enormously, as data from the Global Mobilities Project (GMP) shows. Students from the Global South sometimes pay more than twice as much as students from Europe. The differences are even greater when the standard of living is taken into account: While the costs for students from Western Europe amount to only a fraction of the average daily income, students from Central Asia would have to work for almost three weeks and those from sub-Saharan Africa for more than five weeks to afford a visa.

Abstract:
People with disabilities and their families tend to be at disadvantage compared to other households: they are likely to have lower incomes, experience higher poverty rates, and have lower participation outcomes. However, it is argued that current poverty measures underestimate the real poverty levels experienced by people with disabilities. This is because part of their incomes needs to be spent on disability-related goods and services, which inevitably reduces the consumption of other welfare-enhancing items. The implication is that persons with disabilities need to incur higher expenditure t

1. Countries in continental Africa are considering more than 300 new hydropower projects to meet surging energy demand spurred by population growth and improved living standards. 2. Solar photovoltaics and wind power's plummeting costs are challenging the traditional dominance of hydropower in the African renewable capacity and generation mix. 3. Changes in water availability due to climate change are reducing the economic feasibility of hydropower projects in Africa. 4. Between 32% and 60% of the proposed hydropower capacity is not economically feasible in Africa. 5. Beyond 2030, the cost com

Abstract:
In this Special Article we analyse the distributional impact of Budget 2024. Similar to last year, many reforms in this budget were temporary measures specifically aimed at combatting cost of living pressures. Compared to a baseline pegged to wage growth, we estimate that Budget 2024 will leave households across the income distribution better off, by 2.1 per cent of disposable income on average. The lowest income quintile of households experience the largest relative gain (5-6 per cent of disposable income) but the lowest cash gain (€13-€17 per week). Much of the income gain is driven by tempo

Knowledge gaps surrounding natural infrastructure (NI) life cycles and performance thwart widespread implementation of NI in civil works projects. In particular, information about funding or financing the scoping, design, construction, monitoring, and adaptive management of NI projects constitutes a key need as there is no standard process for securing funds. This technical note is part of a series documenting successful examples of funding NI projects and sharing lessons learned about a variety of funding and financing methods to increase the implementation of NI projects.

Abstract:
Small-scale farmers produce many globally important products such as rice, cocoa, cotton and vanilla. Poverty is widespread among these farmers, and there is an urgent need to increase their incomes. A living income – what a household needs to afford a decent standard of living for all its members – is a human right. It is increasingly recognized that paying a living income is the responsibility of businesses. Pricing is a vital part part of this, but raising the prices paid to farmers can be complicated, and many companies still treat it with scepticism. This paper presents lessons learned fr

Methods Eligible studies were randomized trials evaluating the effect of remdesivir versus placebo or no treatment. We conducted searches in the special L·OVE (Living OVerview of Evidence) platform for COVID-19, a system that performs regular searches in databases, trial registries, preprint servers and websites relevant to COVID-19. All the searches covered the period until 25 August 2020. No date or language restrictions were applied. Two
