      Abstract

      The purpose of this paper is to present a Consumer household capacity scale (ECD) which may improve the quality of earnings measure in Brazilian national household survey, PNAD. The scale is weighted according the presence or not of durable consumer goods. To show how useful this approach can be some evidences of the adherence were presented and discussed. We conclude that ECD Scale is very useful as an auxiliary strategy to get indirect earnings measures. The adequacy of ECD´s strategy is specially important when one faced with structural difficulties to capture household earnings.
