Dear all,

in my thesis I want to conduct a study about a GHG-tax on animal products and its effects on demand and the reduction of GHG-emissions. In a first step I want to estimate elasticities using QUAIDS. All the panel data I have found so far is extremely expensive and I am not too optimistic to find any in the future.

What I have found is data that presicely contains the demand of 10,000 german households for numerous consumer goods with the demanded amount in grams and €. I have access to two waves of data gathered in 2013 and 2018 respectively. My question now is whether this data is appropriate to estimate elasticities using QUAIDS or if panel data is necessary.

Best,
Julian
