Abstract: A series of properties of the distribution of income and aggregated
	expenditure on goods and services has been postulated by W. Hildenbrand
	(1994) and others to hold. In this paper we infer on these properties from
	the Spanish Family Budget Survey (EPF) of the years 1973, 1980, 1990, using
	nonparametric statistical methods. This provides ample evidence for the
	Weak Axiom of Revealed Preference of the market demand function, and the
	Law Of Demand to hold.
