Published on: 29th December, 2017
OCLC Number/Unique Identifier: 7317654733
Background: The majority of aggregate econometric studies indicate that higher taxes and real prices on alcohol significantly reduce the alcohol consumption.
Objectives: To estimate the effects of recent alcohol taxation and pricing policies on vodka sales per capita in Russia.
Methods: Trends in the affordability of vodka, excise tax rates on vodka, real and minimum price of vodka and per capita vodka sales between 2010 and 2015, were compared.
Results: A Pearson’s correlation analysis suggests a positive and statistically significant association between the affordability of vodka and per capita vodka sales. The association between vodka sales and excise tax rates on vodka, the real price of vodka and minimum price of vodka was negative.
Conclusions: These findings indicate that pricing policy has potential to reduce binge drinking of vodka in Russia.

Publishing an article is a long process, but working with your publication department made things go smoothly, even though the process took exactly 5 months from the time of submitting the article till the time I have favourable response, the missing part is the peer review details, which is essential in self auditing and future improvement, overall experience was excellent giving your understanding of the situation of lack of financial institution support.

All together, it was an encouraging and wonderful experience working with ABB personnel.
