This study aimed to choose a suitable standard model of consumer
expenditures on local sheep meat at two levels, family and capita by using
cross-section data for the year 2009. Results showed that the Log-Inverse (LI)
functional was the best mode
l to express the relationship between total
expenditure and spending on sheep meat expenditure at family and capita
levels and the values of coefficient of determination (R2) were 0.203 and 0.37 at
family and capita levels respectively with expenditure elasticity was 0.867 at
family average expenditure level. This might reflect the fact that the sheep meat
is considered a luxury commodity in case of decreasing family average
expenditure below 18001 SP per month.
