Abstract: | The household income and expenditure survey 2016 captured the consumption expenditure
incurred by households. Household consumption expenditure is the value of consumer
goods and services acquired, used or paid for by a household for the satisfaction
of the needs and wants of its members. The consumption expenditure includes four main
broad components;
- expenditure on food items
- expenditure on non-food items/ services
- expenditure on durable goods
- expenditure on rent
For collecting food and non- food expenditures, and services acquired by households,
HIES 2016 used a predefined list of commonly incurred expenses, by the households
during the given reference period. The reference period varied from one week to 12
months, depending on the type of expense. This included items ‘received’ in kind and as
gifts by the household but those were not valued in monetary terms and are not included
in deriving the household expenditures. The expenditure values used here, reflects only
those items/services which have been purchased/acquired by the household. The different
expenditure components and the reference period for which information was collected
in the survey is summarized. |
