摘要
The purpose of this study is to estimate the price and income elasticities of oil products demand in the GCC countries. Annual data spanning the period 1970-91 were fitted to a partial adjustment model to obtain the estimates, The main finding of the study is that both price and income are relatively inelastic in the short-run, and there has been a great variation in these elasticities among fuels and cross-country.
