AB - In recent years the validity of Engel's Laws, with reference to consumption expenditures, has been open to question. The first law was stated in 1857 in Western Europe where economic conditions were much different from today. Do the laws still hold in a mature American economy? This article discusses results from a test using income elasticity as the method. Data were supplied by the 1960–61 study of the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
