Resumo

The present paper examines the problem of finding an optimal set of prices for public utilities when the objective function is the minimization of the level of poverty. The author’s approach is a normative one, that is, the intention is to derive optimal price schedules that could replace those currently used by several public utilities. The analysis developed in this paper is theoretical. An empirical study would require our access to specific sources of data, not available in the present circumstances, and should be thought as the next stage to which the author would like to commit himself.
