Abstract: Los hogares monoparentales tienen cada vez mayor representación en la población, y estos hogares a menudo enfrentan limitaciones económicas y de tiempo. Por ello, el presente trabajo analiza la proporción de gasto destinado al consumo de alimentos que realizan los hogares peruanos de acuerdo con su estructura. El análisis se basa en las curvas de Engel para hogares, la cual relaciona el gasto total con la proporción del gasto específico en alimentos. Se recurrió a una metodología empírica basada en el modelo Tobit, teniendo en cuenta tanto características socioeconómicas de los jefes y demográficas de los hogares. Se comprueba que además del gasto total, factores como sexo, nivel educativo, edad del jefe, tamaño y composición etaria del hogar influyen en los patrones de consumo que éstos realizan. A pesar de la diferencia que existe en las curvas, se cumple la ley de Engel independiente de la estructura.
Estos resultados brindan a los encargados de la formulación de políticas públicas información sobre los patrones de gasto de los hogares y brindan a los profesionales de gestión de recursos familiares información sobre cómo las características de los hogares afectan los gastos.

Abstract: Single-parent households have increasing representation in the population, and these households often face economic and time limitations. Therefore, this investigation analyzes the proportion of expenditure destined to the consumption of food that Peruvian households make according to its structure. The analysis is based on the Engel curves for households, which relates the total expenditure to the proportion of specific food expenditure. An empirical methodology based on the Tobit model was used, taking into account both socioeconomic characteristics of the heads and demographic of households. It is found that in addition to the total expenditure, factors such as sex, educational level, age of the boss, size and age composition of the household influence the consumption patterns they perform. Despite the difference that exists in the curves, Engel's law is independent of the structure. These results provide public policymakers with information on household spending patterns and provide family resource management professionals with information on how household characteristics affect expenditures. JEL classification: C13, D12, H31.
