average expenditure of the reference quintile is scaled up linearly. The resulting scaled-up expenditure suffices to make a scaled-up bundle of characteristics in the assumed lower contour of the adequacy set, R1 , just affordable. This scaled-up expenditure level is defined as the poverty line. If the equiproportionality assumption is correct and the true lower contour of the adequacy set is that which was assumed (i.e. Q1 ), then R1 is indeed on the lower contour of the adequacy set, and our
