This study aims to measure the consumption changes of goods, including bread, rice, milk, edible oil and sugar among the poor and middle-income households before and after paying cash subsidies, in order to support their food security. The statistical population consists of the poor and middle-income households of Iran over the period 2007-2011. We collect data through library documents and databanks of Central Bank of Iran and Statistical Center of Iran. In order to examine the relationship between the dependent variable (necessary goods consumption) and the independent variables (income, price, weighted average of consumption), we employ the multiple regression analysis in Eviews and SPSS environments. In addition, we use t-test to compare the households’ consumption before and after paying cash subsidies. The results indicate that before and after paying cash subsidies, the consumption of the goods under study has declined among the poor and middle-income households
Keywords: Paying cash subsidies, Necessary goods, Poor and Middle-income households
