Resumo: This paper evaluates the impact of an increase in the value of the cash transfer paid to families by the Brazilian Bolsa Família program. The existence of a similar program in the state of Ceará, Bolsa Cidadão, that increases the value received by a sub-group of families, provides a unique dataset, enabling us to evaluate the effect of a higher value of transfer on the spending of comparable households. There is a significant increase in consumption, but it is smaller than the increment in the income, suggesting that the consumption of the households is not properly declared.

O presente artigo avalia o impacto de um aumento no valor do benefício do programa Bolsa Família. Isso é possível pela existência no Estado do Ceará de um programa semelhante, Bolsa Cidadão, que na prática aumenta o valor do Bolsa Família para um destas famílias, possibilitando avaliar o efeito de um maior valor de transferência sobre os gastos de famílias comparáveis. É observado um efeito significativo no consumo das famílias. No entanto, a elevação é menor do que o incremento na renda, o que sugere que o consumo das famílias não é corretamente declarado.
