  Public Utilities Commission - 2002
In 2001 for households of the first quintile consumption expenditures on telecommunications services were 1.40 lats (compared to 0.24 lats in 1996), but for households of the fifth quintile —10.01 lats (compared to 1.51 lats in 1996) on average per one household member monthly.
Moreover, for the consumption expenditures on electricity the difference between the lowest and highest quintiles and between urban and rural households were not as big as for the expenditures on telecommunications services.
In the first and second quintile the share of consumption expenditures on electricity in the total expenditures is growing over years, but in the wealthier households of the third, fourth and fifth quintiles this indicator has not changed over the last years or has even decreased.

 Household Energy Consumption and Expenditures 1993 -- Executive Summary
National residential energy consumption was 10.0 quadrillion Btu in 1993, a 9-percent increase from the 9.2 quadrillion Btu consumed in the last study in 1990.
The colder winter in 1993 led to an increase of 9 percent in natural gas consumption for space-heating and a 21-percent increase in electricity consumption for space-heating from 1990.
Households that use electricity for their main space heating fuel have lower overall energy expenditures than households that heat with other fuels, despite the fact that electricity costs more per million Btu.

Household consumption expenditure In the Kenyan national accounts, household consumption expenditure is obtained as a residual, after subtracting from GDP government consumption expenditure, gross fixed capital formation, changes in inventories and net exports.
Household consumption expenditure Because the Senegalese national account’s household consumption expenditure estimate is obtained as a residual, it has the potential of including a statistical discrepancy, changes in inventories (for the preliminary accounts), and consumption expenditures of the NPISHs.
The consumption expenditures are categorized by three different dimensions, by type of expenditure (compensation of employees and purchases of goods and services form enterprises and abroad), by function (general administrative, education, health, etc.), and by level of government.

Given the average household size of 4.4 (in adult equivalent units), this consumption level corresponds to a yearly per capita income of approximately $250 (in 1996 US$). Comparing across all households in the raw data, firewood collection is increasing and concave in household consumption expenditures, with a correlation coefficient equal to 0.15.
This reflects the presence of large scale economies in fuelwood consumption at the household level, as revealed by the household estimates (where the elasticity with respect ot family size was close to one-half).
We increase consumption expenditures for all households in all villages by 10%.

 Intermediate Macroeconomics - Consumption
Obviously this household is either withdrawing money from savings or borrowing money to finance their spending, which exceeds their income by $2,000 a year.
The change in consumption from one year to the next divided by the change in income is the marginal propensity to consume.
Consumption reported in the national GDP accounts and used in empirical studies does not correspond to the theoretical meaning of consumption.

 FAFO Report 166
Households with female heads have thus been classified together with households without labour-force members and households with at least one full-time worker, into a group of households where the affects of the border closure are assumed to be less than average.
Households of the third prototype, empirically represented by those without labour-force members or households headed by females, may in general be assumed already to have adapted to a minimum level of consumption expenditures.
Households of this prototype are thus crucially dependent on improved income opportunities in the near future.

 UNSCO Report - Spring 1998 3-2
The completion of two years of monthly household expenditure surveys on the part of the PCBS provides an opportunity to gauge medium-term household adaptations to reductions in their average incomes.
Households initially purchased less of items occupying the largest share of their consumption expenditures--such as food--but which, proportionally, would be less affected.
Reduced expenditures on clothing and footwear reflect, in part, the higher than average price increases on such commodities and the ability of households to extend the use of such commodities, while food purchase declines represent adjustments in the single largest expenditure group.

 Estimation of the Prevalence of Food Inadequacy (Item 10 of the Agenda)
However, for the purpose of estimating the distribution of calorie consumption, it was necessary to convert the household level food consumption data into calories and hence derive tabulation relating to the distribution of individuals according to household per caput calorie consumption classes.
The Experts were informed that the process of converting the food consumption data from the HIES into calories and tabulating the results in the form of distributions by household per caput calorie consumption was not normally undertaken in most countries.
The Experts were informed that in using the generated household level data pertaining to calorie consumption for estimating the distribution it should be noted that in practice the sample of households did not truly represent the population due to a number of reasons.

 Ch03
Similarly, the primary income of a household may include wages received by one or more members of the household from outside employment and is not necessarily confined to the income generated by the household's agricultural production.
The compilation of accounts for the agricultural household subsector is therefore no substitute for estimating total agricultural output from establishment or product data, but must be viewed as an end in itself because of the policy interest in the general economic circumstances of these households, which are often very poor.
They are households whose mixed income from their own agricultural production is larger than either of the other two main categories of income that may be received by household members, namely compensation of employees and property plus transfer income.

In macroeconomics we might ask how much our personal consumption expenditures will increase if we receive one more dollar of income (marginal propensity to consume).
Or, for each $1 increase in national income, household consumption expenditures increase by 75 cents.
This is often referred to as the "subsistence" level of consumption expenditures.

 WP#30: Targeted Programs in an Economic Crisis: Empirical Findings from Indonesia's Experience
First, "static participation incidence" (the relationship between program participation and household consumption expenditures) was substantially better than a uniform transfer, but substantially worse than perfect targeting --and remarkably similar for all of the JPS programs.
Second, unlike standard static incidence measures, what we define as dynamic participation incidence - the relationship between changes in consumption expenditures and program participation - was very different between the JPS programs.
The employment creation programs which relied on self-selection targeting was much more likely to reach those households with large shocks to their expenditures than programs based on administrative targeting such as subsidized rice sales, scholarships, and health subsidies.

In this note we focus exclusively on changes in real household consumption expenditures, as these reflect both actual changes in people's current living standards, and can also serve as a measureable proxy for income changes due to the crisis.
Also, using consumption expenditures we can examine the evolution of poverty by tracking changes in the "head count" measure of poverty: the number and proportion of individuals whose current consumption is below a defined poverty line.
