The objective of this paper is to analyze the public indebtedness of Tamaulipas and compare to the evolution of public expenditure, pointing out which budget segments and where has been oriented the public expenditure in the period of 2003-2013. Initially, it is explored the conditions that have an effect on over the public indebtedness in the states, as low fiscal pressure, absence of fiscal sovereignty (as centralized fiscal collection), elevated public expenditure due to the commitments of the governing parties, limited transparency over the financial information, among others. In the second part, it is studied the process of growth of the state public debt in relation to the federal transfers and it is analyzed the application of the transferred economic resources according to the expenditure budgets during the indicated period. Lastly, several conclusions are presented as well as a valorization of the current situation that Tamaulipas maintains in terms of public debt. It was possible to determine that in despite of the fast-paced growth of the public debt and the public expenditure of Tamaulipas during the period 2003-2013, this conditions has not been translated into similar economic growth rates, <em>au contraire</em> Tamaulipas have lost several positions in the public safety and competitive rankings.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100390,"journal":{"name":"Economía Informa","volume":"403 ","pages":"Pages 70-90"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.ecin.2017.05.005","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80232787","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Second, the paper presents the results of an idealized economic statistical model of Marshallian demands on a set of basic goods and services (whole milk, meat, egg, white bread, bottled water, and medical services) in Mexican households. Finally, the investigation concludes that, under certain assumptions and with the exception of general medical consultations, the reduction in consumption differences among the ten deciles of households in Mexico is explained by the decrease in average quarterly income from the fourth decile and the increase of the prices of the goods and services considered in this study.
