Abstract

In order to investigate the impact of baby boom on urban family consumption in Weihai, the questionnaire survey was carried out to obtain the family consumption data of food, clothing, health care, household articles, cultural and educational entertainment. Using the ELES model to process the data, the marginal propensity to consume, basic consumption expenditure and actual expenditure, demand income elasticity and price elasticity for family consumption in Weihai were obtained. The family consumption characteristics of the family in Weihai were analyzed, and some suggestions about urban family consumption were put forward as well. The study shows that the consumption tendency of the family with two-children is greater than that of one-child; however, in real life, the economic burden of the two-child families has increased so that the life quality has been affected to some extent.
