目标。估计2014年对含糖饮料（SSB）和非必需能量密集食品征税后的价格变化。材料和方法。2013年12月、2014年4月和12月采集农村和半农村地区的价格数据。固定效应模型被用来估计饮料和非必需能量密集食品的价格变化，按地区、零售商和包装大小分层。结果。SSB税并没有完全通过价格传导：价格平均每升上涨0.73比索。对于非必需的能量密集食品，税收完全通过，或者对饼干、麦片棒和麦片盒征税。结论。在农村地区，由于价格传递不完全，消费税对消费的潜在影响可能会减弱。
Objective. To estimate changes in prices associated with the implementation of the tax to sugar sweetened beverages (SSB) and to nonessential energy dense food in 2014. Materials and methods. Price data were collected in rural and semi-rural areas in December 2013, and April and December 2014. Fixed effects models were used to estimate changes in prices of beverages and nonessential energy dense food, stratified by region, retailer and package size. Results.The SSB tax did not pass completely through prices: prices increased on average 0.73 pesos per liter. For nonessential energy dense food, the tax passed completely or was overshifted for cookies, cereal bars and cereal boxes. Conclusion.The potential effect of the taxes on consumption could be attenuated in rural areas as the pass through prices was incomplete.
