G overnm ent P r in tin g Office W ash in gton , D.C. 20402 Preface This bulletin presents detailed income and expenditure data from the Inter view component of the new, ongoing Consumer Expenditure Survey. Data from the Diary component were published in 1983 in Consumer Expenditure Survey: Diary Survey, 1980-81, Bulletin 2173. Data for both components were collected during 1980 and 1981, the first two years of the survey program, bls will publish integrated data from both the Diary and Interview components of the Consumer Expenditure Survey showing total expenditures of urban con sumer units classified by selected characteristics. The consumer expenditure survey program now provides a continuous and comprehensive flow of data on the buying habits of American consumers for use in a wide variety of economic research and analysis, and in support of future revisions of the Consumer Price Index. To meet the needs of users, bls makes the data available in news releases, bulletins, articles in the Monthly Labor Review, and public-use computer tapes. A selected listing of publications and tapes is given at the end of this bulletin. The bulletin was prepared in the Office of Prices and Living Conditions under the general direction of Eva E. Jacobs, Chief of the Division of Consumer Ex penditure Surveys, and Stephanie Shipp, Chief of the Branch of Information and Analysis. Major contributions in preparing tables and text were made by William Passero, Beth Harrison, John Rogers, Alice Lippert, Kirk Kaneer, Ray Gieseman, Ana Lavallee, Raphael Branch, and Maureen Boyle. All processing of data was completed under the direction of Katrina Reut, Chief of the Branch of Production and Control, and Stephen Wright, Chief of the Branch of Con sumer Expenditure Surveys and Cost Weights. Statistical assistance on data reliability and estimation of weights was provided by Curtis Jacobs and Paul Hsen of the Statistical Methods Division.

They arose from the need for information by U.S. Government policymakers. The first survey was conducted from 1888 to 1891 as a result of tariff negotiations between the United States and European coun tries. Comprehensive surveys were conducted in 1901 and 1917-19 in response to concern over the effects of rapidly rising prices on living costs during those periods. The 1901 survey provided food expenditure data in sufficient detail to enable the construction of a food price index. The 1917-19 survey extended detailed coverage to all categories of family expenditure. It was from informa tion obtained in the 1917-19 survey, which focused on wage earners and salaried workers living in urban areas, that bls developed its first cost-of-living index, which evolved into the Consumer Price Index (CPI). Studies in the late 1920’s and early 1930’s showed that consumption patterns of American consumers had changed markedly since the 1917-19 survey. These changes, combined with the needs of public policy planners attempting to restore economic order in the 1930’s, underscored the necessity for new infor mation on consumption patterns. During 1934-36, bls participated in two separate surveys. One provided the basis for an extensive analysis of the distribution of income and expenditures and their relationship to such variables as region, occupation, family composition, and race. The second, a more limited survey, was used for revision of the CPI and the selection of a new list of items to be priced in the index. During 1941-42, bls and the Department of Agriculture cooperated in con ducting a nationwide survey of the civilian noninstitutional population to pro vide data on which to base governmental decisions affecting the civilian economy during World War II. It was the first bls survey in which the entire sample population was chosen using scientific sampling methods. From 1944 to 1949, bls tested alternative techniques and methodologies designed to improve subsequent expenditure surveys. As a result, many statistical improvements were incorporated in the expenditure survey of 1950, which covered the civilian noninstitutional population living in urban areas. The 1960-61 survey, more ambitious than any of its predecessors, covered all urban and rural families and single consumers. Data were collected in interviews in which respondents were asked to recall the previous year’s expenditures. The detail of food expenditures was obtained from a 7-day recall. The release of a general-purpose public use tape containing findings from the 1960-61 survey marked the first time micro data had been released on tape by bls. Unlike previous surveys, the 1972-73 survey was carried out by the Bureau of the Census under contract to bls . It was also the first bls expenditure survey consisting of two separate components: a Quarterly Interview panel survey and a Diary survey. The decision to adopt the diary/interview format was based on testing of collection methodology performed by bls , the Census Bureau, and the Survey Research Laboratory of the University of Illinois. These tests reveal ed that data of high quality could be obtained if questionnaires were tailored so that information on larger, more easily recalled expeditures was collected by periodic recall, as done in the quarterly interview, and for small, less expensive items, by day-to-day recordkeeping, as done by the diary. The 1980-81 survey The new, ongoing survey is the first major survey of consumer expenditures since 1972-73. The new survey, like the previous one, consists of two separate components, each with its own questionnaire and sample: 1) A Quarterly Inter view survey in which each of the consumer units in the sample is visited by an interviewer every 3 months over a 12-month period, and 2) a Diary survey in which consumer units are asked to complete a diary of expenses for two con secutive 1-week periods.1This bulletin presents the data collected in the Quarter ly Interview component for 1980 and 1981. Diary data were published in 1983 (see Bulletin 2173, Consumer Expenditure Survey: Diary Survey, 1980-81). As in 1972-73, data collection for both components of the survey was carried out by the Bureau of the Census under contract to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The Interview survey obtains data on the types of expenditures respondents can be expected to recall for a period of 3 months or longer. These would include relatively large expenditures, such as those for property, automobiles, and major appliances, and those which occur on a regular basis, 1 See appendix A for definition o f consumer unit. such as rent, insurance premiums, and apparel. The Interview survey also ob tains data on expenditures incurred on trips. The Diary survey is designed to obtain data on frequently purchased items, such as food and beverages, both at home and in eating places; tobacco; housekeeping supplies; nonprescription drugs; and personal care products and services. These items are less likely to be recalled accurately by respondents over longer periods of time. Expenditures incurred while away from home overnight or longer are excluded from the Diary. While the new survey and the 1972-73 survey are similar in many respects, there are differences between them. One major difference is the ongoing nature of the new survey, with rotating panels of respondents interviewed on a con tinuous basis. This provides more timely information on consumption patterns of different kinds of consumer units. Also, in the new survey, students living in college- or university-regulated housing report their own expenditures separate ly, rather than as part of their parents’ households. It is believed that the ex penditures of students were underreported or inaccurately reported in the 1972-73 survey. The concept of the consumer unit “ head” has also changed in the new survey. Previously, husbands were automatically considered to be the heads of consumer units in which both husband and wife were present. The new survey adopts the term “ householder” or “ reference person” , defined as the first member of the consumer unit mentioned by the respondent as an owner (or renter) of the premises at the time of the initial interview. This is in accordance with procedures for other government surveys such as the Current Population Survey. The expenditure and income data are presented in 30 tables. Eight een of the tables show the 1980-81 average expenditures for the urban popula tion tabulated by selected socioeconomic characteristics.2 Data for 1980 and 1981 are shown separately in 12 tables. percent on utilities, reflecting in part the fact that many renters had some utilities included in rent. • About 85 percent of households owned at least one vehicle, with the average almost two vehicles per household. Gasoline accounted for about one-third of total transportation costs. • Transportation costs as a proportion of total expenditures were higher for the youngest consumers—about 23 percent—than for the oldest consumers—about 16 percent. Proportions spent for transportation were higher for multipleearner consumer units than for those with one earner. • Consumers in the West showed the lowest share of total expenditures going for utilities, partly because that region had a relatively large number of renters. On the other hand, consumer units in the West spent relatively more for shelter than consumer units in other regions. • Although the average family size for the single-parent household was slightly over three, expenditures of this group were only about 60 percent of the average for all three-person families. • Households in the over-65 age group spent a higher proportion on food, housing, and health care than any other age group. The under-25 age group spent a higher proportion of their expenditures on education, entertainment, and other transportation than any other age group. • Households in the age groups from 25 to 64 years spent an average of about 8 percent of their total expenditures on Social Security and other pension payments and personal insurance. Highlights of Interview survey results in 1980-81 Highlights off changes since 1972-73 • About half of the total expenditures of American urban households were for housing and transportation. For the lowest income groups, housing costs represented a much larger percentage of the total than for the highest income group. • About 60 percent of the households were homeowners.They spent 27 percent of total housing costs on utilities and public services. Renters spent about 20 2 Due to budget constraints, rural primary sampling units were eliminated from the sample beginning in October 1981. Since the survey is ongoing and comparability over time is important, only expenditures for the urban population are published for 1980 and 1981. In order to compare with National Income and Product Accounts, estimates o f total population for 1980 and 1981 were constructed (see section on comparisons with other data). • Average annual expenditures increased over 80 percent for urban consumers between 1972-73 and 1980-81 (text table 1). Several major components— homeowner costs, fuels and utilities, and gasoline—more than doubled. These components were significantly affected by the changes in house prices, interest rates, and energy prices in the period between the surveys. • Housing costs increased to almost 30 percent of total spending in 1980-81 from 28 percent in 1972-73. • The share of total energy-related components—fuels, utilities, and public services, and gasoline—increased from 10 percent to 14 percent of total expenditures. costs in 1960-61. Auto transportation costs exceeded food costs by 5 percent in the 1972-73 survey and by 7 percent in 1980-81. • Automobile transportation costs continued their rise in importance in the household budget, from 17.5 percent to almost 19 percent. To put this change in perspective, costs for automobile transportation were about 62 percent of food • Other components that more than doubled during the period were food away from home, reading, and miscellaneous expenditures, including accounting and legal services. The increase of over 200 percent in alcoholic beverages, historically severely underreported, probably reflects improved reporting rather than increased consumption. Text table 1.

During this period, Social Security employee con tribution rates and the level to which they were applied both rose substantially. In addition, there was a proliferation of private pension plans, many of which required some employee contribution. • Expenditures for apparel and upkeep declined as a share of total expend itures. This can be partially attributed to a slower than average rate of price in crease for apparel items and decreasing family size. 82 92 84 125 215 92 87 122 42 112 117 88 73 28 96 66 191 63 105 73 96 49 134 74 34 154 35 55 -2 8 122 1 1972-73 expenditure categories were adjusted to correspond with 1980-81 definitions (see appendix C). • The small decline in the health care share is probably accounted for by the spread of employer-financed health insurance plans. • The proportion of total expenditures accounted for by each income group changed little between 1972-73 and 1980-81. In both survey periods, the lowest 20 percent accounted for about 9 percent of the aggregate expenditures of all families; the highest 20 percent, for about 35 percent. Interpreting the data In interpreting the expenditure data, several factors should be considered. First, they are averages for the total urban population. An individual consumer unit may not have purchased a car or a major appliance or paid for health in surance during the survey period. Even if the purchase was made, an individual consumer unit may have spent substantially more or less than the average. In come, age of family members, geographic location, and individual preferences are among the factors which influence expenditures. Even within a group with similar characteristics, there may be significant variation. Second, expenditures reported here are the direct out-of-pocket expenditures of consumer units. Indirect expenditures may be significant. For example, ren tal contracts often include utilities. In 1980-81, for 21 percent of renters, elec tricity was included in rent, and for 31 percent, gas was included. These renters would record no direct expense for these utilities. In addition, consumer units with members whose employers pay for health insurance or life insurance would have lower direct expense for these items than those who pay the entire amount themselves. These factors should be considered when relating averages to in dividual circumstances. Third, approximately 95 percent of expenditures are covered in the Interview. Excluded are nonprescription drugs, household supplies, and personal care items. The Interview survey must be integrated with the Diary survey to provide a complete picture of expenditures. Several years of data from both the Diary and Interview components are also required to construct the complete picture of consumer spending needed to update the market basket for the Consumer Price Index. When comparing 1980-81 data with those for 1972-73 (see appendix C), users should keep in mind the difference in the treatment of the student population. Although including students as separate consumer units in the new survey has relatively little effect on estimates for the total population, estimates for some population groups, such as one-person consumer units and those under age 25, are significantly affected. To assist readers in making comparisons, the relevant tables in appendix C show estimates excluding students. Text table 2.

Changes in consumer spending are related to the underlying economic and social environment of the periods being compared. One major economic shock was the oil crisis, which took place at the end of the 1972-73 survey period and resulted in sharp increases in oil prices. The ramifications of these price increases throughout the economy caused consumers to alter their consumption patterns substantially. Text table 2 shows the changes in expenditures and changes in components of the Consumer Price Index from 1972-73 to 1980-81. The definitions and coverage of the c p i do not completely conform to the components of the expend iture survey. The change in the total c p i is not compared because the concept of homeownership cost is not comparable and because cash contributions and per sonal insurance are not included in the c p i . In examining price change by com ponent, price increases for oil-related fuels and utilities and for gasoline stand out. These changes are reflected in the large increase in expenditures for these components. Changes in the costs of owning a home (interest, taxes, insurance, and maintenance and repair) are more difficult to measure. However, we do know that interest rates and house prices increased substantially during this period, and maintenance and repair prices doubled in the c p i . mon practice to use the c p i for this purpose.4 The c p i increased by about 20 percentage points more than income reported in the survey for the similar time period.5The apparent decline in real income on this basis was accompanied by a somewhat smaller decline in expenditures, if the c p i is similarly applied to that total. Several factors might account for the apparent decline in real income. Among them are the smaller family size in 1980-81 and a younger average population. Also, students, who were counted as separate consumer units in 1980-81, have a lower average income than nonstudents. Average before-tax in come increased by 63 percent between 1972-73 and 1980-81 when students are excluded. Any analysis which refers to income from household surveys must take into account the special problems involved in obtaining responses to income ques tions. The number of consumer units classified as incomplete income reporters Changes in income. A major influence on consumers is a change in real income, that is, the change in income adjusted for change in prices. Between 1972-73 and 1980-81, income reported in the Interview surveys increased 61 percent before income taxes.3 There is no completely correct price index for deflating income, but it is com- 3 Income averages are derived only from complete income reporters (see appendix A for definitions). 4 Robert Gillingham and John S. Greenlees, “ The Incorporation o f Direct Taxes into a Consumer Price Index,” in Price Level Measurement, W. Erwin Diewert and Claude Montmarquette, eds. (Statistics Canada, 1983), pp. 619-654. See also Jack E. Triplett, “ Escalation Measures: What is the Answer? What is the Question?” in Price Level Measurement, pp. 457-487. 5 Income is reported for the last 12 months and therefore includes 1979 income for many 1980 respondents. 1980 was used as the midpoint for measuring the comparable change from 1972-73 to 1980-81 in the Consumer Price In dex. ’ 1972-73 expenditures were adjusted to correspond with 1980-81 definitions (see appendix C). 2 Estimated. 4 (see appendix A) rose from 6 percent to 16 percent from 1972-73 to 1980-81. These may be either refusals or lack of information on the part of the respond ent about income of all family members. In addition, there has always been underreporting of property income, that is, interest, dividends, and rent. Since there has been an increase in refusals to questions about major sources of in come, it is reasonable to suspect that, even for those consumer units counted as complete income reporters, there may have been some deterioration in the reporting of total income. The problems associated with reporting of income are well known and documented in other surveys.6 The average income for complete income reporters is an approximation of average income for all respondents. Therefore, in all tables, only income data for complete income reporters are included. Demographic changes. Changes in the makeup of the population also affect spending patterns. The decade between surveys saw members of the postwar baby-boom generation entering the work force. The group of consumer units in the 25 to 34 age group rose from 20 to 24 percent of the population, while the older, peak-earning age group, 45 to 54, declined from 18 to 14 percent of the population (chart 1). The decline in family size continued (chart 2), from an average of 3.1 persons in 1960-61 to 2.8 in 1972-73 to 2.7 in 1980-81. Geographic shifts took place as well, primarily away from the Northeast region to the South (chart 3). Another trend was the rise in two-earner consumer units (chart 4), from 36 percent to 43 percent of family units. Since different segments of the population have different patterns of expenditures, such social and economic changes may have a significant impact on the overall pattern of con sumer spending. Com parisons w ith other data sources As part of the evaluation of the survey results, bls compared aggregate ex penditure estimates obtained from the Interview survey with alternative, in dependent sources of data. Personal consumption expenditures in National Income and Product Accounts. Historically, the principal source of independent estimates used for these com parisons has been the personal consumption expenditures (PCE) component of the National Income and Product Accounts, prepared by the Bureau of Economic Analysis, U.S. Department of Commerce. Since the Commerce estimates cover the total population, comparisons are made on that basis7 and on the basis of aggregates rather than averages. 6 See Current Population Reports, P-60, N o. 142 (Bureau o f the Census, 1984), p. 214. 7 See footnote 2. The pce estimates represent the market value of goods and services purchased by the entire personal sector in the United States. The series is derived by com plex methods which trace the flow of goods and services through the economy. While the data are not directly subject to the quantifiable sampling errors found in household surveys, they are subject to errors in the source data and to dif ficulties in applying complex procedures for allocating these data among the final demand sectors.8 Differences in concept and coverage require adjustments to both bls and Commerce data to permit a comparison. With these adjustments, comparisons can be made for many categories of consumer spending.9 The degree of concord ance varies by component, as noted in text table 3. Where differences in concept are so great as to make the comparison meaningless, such as for health care or education, the data are not shown. Text table 3 shows aggregates for selected expenditure categories in the 1972-73 and 1980-81 Interview surveys, adjusted for comparability with Com merce data, and the resulting ratios. The ratios indicate that the Interview survey, with few exceptions, produced lower estimates of consumer expend itures for the major categories of consumption than those recorded in the Com merce series. However, the relationship between the two series over time has re mained generally constant. The deterioration in the ratio for the apparel compo nent is a cause for concern, and bls will continue to investigate this area. Residential Energy Consumption Survey. The Energy Information Administra tion of the U.S. Department of Energy (doe) publishes data collected in the Residential Energy Consumption Survey (recs) on expenditures for electricity, natural gas, fuel oil and kerosene, and liquefied petroleum gas. Data on motor fuel are collected and published separately. To make the comparison, time periods and fuel types were matched to the extent possible. However, some dif ference is to be expected because imputations are made in the doe surveys for the money value of utilities included in residential rents, and for motor fuels for households which did own vehicles but did not report expenditures. 8 At each stage o f the flow, cost and profit margins are estimated to arrive at a final market value of goods and services sold to consumers. The primary source o f data is the Census o f Manufactures and other economic cen suses. Since these censuses are available only every 5 years, each component o f the series is updated between cen suses from various other secondary sources. Once new data are available from the census, the components o f per sonal consumption expenditures are revised to accord with this benchmark. (The 1972 Census o f Manufactures is the current benchmark.) Estimates also may be revised as other source data become available and are incorporated more frequently. In the past, revisions for some components have resulted in substantial changes. A detailed description o f the derivation o f personal consumption expenditures, as well as the other components o f the Na tional Income and Product Accounts, is found in Development o f National Income Measures, Supplement to Survey o f Current Business (Bureau o f Economic Analysis, 1954). 9 For a detailed comparison o f the 1972-73 Consumer Expenditure Survey and the Commerce series, see Robert B. Pearl,“ Reevaluation o f the 1972-73 U .S. Consumer Expenditure Survey” , Technical Paper No. 46 (Bureau of the Census, July 1979). Chart 2.

In PCE, data are for space rent, excluding any charges for utilities. 2The Interview survey concept covers direct costs of utilities and fuels by homeowners and renters. PCE data cover total expenditures for utilities and fuels even if paid by landlords. 3 Various subcategories were combined to approximate equivalent content. 4 PCE concept of dealer margin as the purchase value of used cars could not be matched. Vehicle pur chases, trade-ins, and sales from Interview survey data were combined to obtain an approximate total for new and used cars. NOTE: Estimates are for the total population, urban and rural. The comparison shows that the Interview estimates for household fuels were lower than those from the Energy Department survey for the total population but were higher for motor fuels (text table 4). For the three household fuel categories combined, the Interview estimate of $65.9 billion was about 12 per cent lower. This is in the direction one would expect from the differences in estimation methodology. The Interview estimate for motor fuels was about 3 percent higher than that of the Energy Department. Diary survey (1980-81). Only data collected in the Interview survey are presented in this bulletin. Some components shown here were also included in the bulletin published earlier (Bulletin 2173) which presented results from the 1980-81 Diary survey. However, expenditure amounts for components common to both the Interview and Diary surveys may be different for several reasons. For food-at-home expenditures, respondents in the Interview survey are ask ed a“ global” question, that is, to estimate the number of trips they made to the grocery store for the 3-month period prior to the Interview survey, the average expenditures per trip, and how much of the expenditure was for nonfood items, which is then subtracted from the total. Food expenditures at specialty and con venience stores are added to give an estimate of food at home. In the Diary survey, respondents keep an itemized record of daily expenditures on food and other items. Food-at-home estimates from the Interview survey were about 22 percent to 23 percent higher than the Diary survey estimates in 1980 and 1981. The opposite result was obtained for expenditures for food away from home, which are also collected with a global question in the Interview survey. Expend itures for food away from home (including trips) in the Interview survey were about 4 percent lower than the Diary survey estimates in 1980 and about 5 per cent lower in 1981. Expenditures for food while on trips are reported in the In terview survey but not in the Diary survey. Expenditures for food while on trips accounted for approximately 17 percent of food-away-from-home expenditures in the Interview survey for both 1980 and 1981. Expenditures on energy items—natural gas, electricity, fuel oil and other fuels, and gasoline and motor oil—are also collected in both the Interview and Diary surveys. For 1980, average expenditures in the Interview survey were Text table 4.

N ote : Estimates are for the total population, urban and rural. about 13 percent higher for both natural gas and electricity than in the Diary survey. Larger differences were shown for fuel oil and other fuels, as Interview expenditures were about 23 percent below the Diary in 1980. For gasoline and motor oil, on the other hand, Interview expenditures were about 25 percent higher than the Diary. In 1981, the differences in expenditures between the surveys were smaller for all four energy items. Natural gas was higher in the In terview by 8 percent and electricity by 4 percent; expenditures for fuel oil and other fuels were lower by 15 percent. Gasoline and motor oil expenditures were higher by 13 percent. Gasoline on trips was not included in the Interview totals in text table 5 to allow comparison with Diary estimates. Income data are collected in both the Diary and Interview surveys. A com parison of income data published for the 1980-81 Diary survey and the 1980-81 Interview survey shows the Interview data to be higher. This is mostly because average income published from the Diary survey includes both complete and in complete reporters of income while averages from the Interview survey, publish ed in this bulletin, are only for complete reporters of income.

Interview and Diary income data for complete income reporters shows the Inter view data to be only slightly higher, $19,989 versus $19,188. The income value may be somewhat higher because more detailed income questions are asked in the Interview survey and because they are asked twice—at the second and fifth interview. Income questions in the Diary survey are asked only once. Table 1.

Glossary Population Income The civilian noninstitutional urban population of the United States as well as that portion of the institutional population living in the following group quarters: Boarding houses, housing facilities for students and workers, staff units in hospitals and homes for the aged, infirm, or needy, permanent living quarters in hotels and motels, and mobile home parks. The combined income earned by all consumer unit members 14 years old or over during the 12 months preceding the interview. The components of income are described later in this glossary. Com plete income reporters The distinction between complete and incomplete income reporters is based in general on whether the respondent provided values for major sources of in come, such as wages and salaries, self-employment income, and social security income. Even complete income reporters may not have provided a full account ing of all income from all sources. It should be noted that the current definition of complete income reporting is different from the 1972-73 definition. A con sumer unit reporting zero income in 1972-73 was considered a complete respond ent so long as there was no evidence of intent to refuse the income question. In the 1980-81 survey, across-the-board zero income reporting was designated as invalid, and the consumer unit was categorized as an incomplete reporter. In all tables, income data are for complete income reporters only. Urban population All persons living in Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas (smsa ’s) and in urbanized areas and urban places of 2,500 or more persons outside of smsa ’s. Urban, defined in this survey, includes the rural populations within smsa ’s . Student population Students living in college- or university-regulated housing, usually dor mitories. Consum er unit Quintiles of income before taxes A consumer unit comprises either: (1) all members of a particular household who are related by blood, marriage, adoption, or other legal arrangements; (2) a person living alone or sharing a household with others or living as a roomer in a private home or lodging house or in permanent living quarters in a hotel or motel, but who is financially independent; or (3) two or more persons living together who pool their income to make joint expenditure decisions. Financial independence is determined by the three major expense categories: housing, food, and other living expenses. To be considered financially independent, at least two of the three major expense categories have to be provided by the respondent. For each time period represented in the tables, complete income reporters are ranked in ascending order according to the level of total before-tax income reported by the consumer unit. The ranking is then divided into five equal groups. Incomplete income reporters are not ranked and are shown separately. Geographic regions Data are presented for four major regions—Northeast, North Central, South, and West. Consumer units are classified by region according to the address at which the family was residing during the time of their participation in the survey. The regions comprise the following States: Householder or reference person Northeast— Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Vermont. The first member mentioned by the respondent when asked to “ Start with the name of the person or one of the persons who owns or rents the home.’’ It is with respect to this person that the relationship of other consumer unit members is determined. North Central —Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota, and Wisconsin. 131 South —Alabama, Arkansas, Delaware, District of Columbia, Florida, Num ber of vehicles owned Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, and West Virginia.

For example, food purchases are included under food, the purchase of an airline ticket is included in transportation, and so on.

Wages and salaries includes total money earnings for all consumer unit members, 14 years or older, from all jobs including civilian wages and salaries, Armed Forces pay and allowances, piece-rate payments, commissions, tips, Na tional Guard or Reserve pay (received for training periods), and cash bonuses, before deductions for taxes, pensions, union dues, etc. Federal income taxes includes Federal income taxes withheld in the survey year to pay for income earned in survey year plus additional taxes paid in survey year to cover any underpayment or underwithholding of taxes in the year prior to the survey. Self-employment income includes net business and farm income, which con sists of net income (gross receipts minus operating expenses) from a profession or unincorporated business or from the operation of a farm by an owner, ten ant, or sharecropper. If the business or farm is a partnership, only an ap propriate share of net income is recorded. Losses are also recorded. State and local income taxes includes State and local income taxes withheld in survey year to pay for income earned in survey year plus additional taxes paid in survey year to cover any underpayment or underwithholding of taxes in year prior to survey. Social security, private and government retirement includes the following: (1) payments by the Federal Government made under retirement, survivors’, and disability insurance programs to retired persons, to dependents of deceased in sured workers, or to disabled workers, and (2) private pensions or retirement benefits received by retired persons or their survivors, either directly or through an insurance company. Other taxes includes personal property and other personal taxes paid, in cluding social security taxes for the self-employed paid in the survey year to cover any underpayment or underwithholding of taxes in the year prior to the survey. Interest, dividends, rental income, and other property income includes in terest income on savings or bonds; payments made by a corporation to its stockholders; periodic receipts from estates or trust funds; net income or loss from the rental of property, real estate, or farms; and net income or loss from roomers or boarders. Addenda Other money receipts includes lump-sum payments from estates, trusts, sale of house furnishings, refunds from overpayment on social security, refunds from insurance policies, and refunds from property taxes. Unemployment and workers' compensation, veterans’ benefits includes in come from unemployment compensation and workers’ compensation, and veterans’ payments including educational benefits but excluding military retire ment. Mortgage principal paid on owned property includes the reduction of mort gage principal on a mortgage obtained prior to the interview quarter for a home or any other property. This is not included in homeowner costs but is considered repayment of a loan. Public assistance, supplemental security income, food stamps includes public assistance or welfare, including money received from job training grants; sup plemental security income paid by Federal, State, and local welfare agencies to low-income persons who are age 65 or over, blind, or disabled; the purchase value of food stamps. Gifts o f goods and services includes gift expenditures: (1) clothing for females and males over 2 years old, and infants under 2 years old; (2) jewelry and watches; (3) small appliances and miscellaneous housewares; (4) blankets, sheets, towels, and table linens; and (5) all other gifts. These items have already been defined. Their values are given so they can be subtracted from the expend iture totals when comparisons with 1972-73 are made. Regular contributions fo r support includes alimony and child support as well as any regular contributions from persons outside the consumer unit. 135 Appendix B. Survey Methods characteristics and on the inventory of major durable goods of each consumer unit. Expenditure information is also collected in this interview, using a 1-month recall. It is used along with the inventory information solely for boundding purposes, that is, to classify the unit for analysis and to prevent duplicate reporting of expenditures in subsequent interviews. The second through fifth interviews use uniform questionnaires to collect ex penditure information in each quarter. Wage, salary, and other information on the employment of each household member is also collected in the second and fifth interviews. In the fifth and final interview, an annual supplement is used to obtain a financial profile of the household. This profile consists of information on the income of the household as a whole, including unemployment compensa tion, alimony and child support, and changes in assets and liabilities. Households which moved away from their sample address between interviews were dropped from the survey. New households which moved into the sample address were screened for eligibility and included in the survey if found qualified. Description of survey The 1980-81 survey, like the 1972-73 survey, consists of two separate com ponents: 1) a Quarterly Interview panel survey in which each consumer unit in the sample is interviewed every 3 months over a 12-month period, and 2) a Diary or recordkeeping survey completed by the sample consumer units for two con secutive 1-week periods. Each component has its own questionnaire and in dependent sample. There are several new features of the ongoing survey. New households are in troduced into the sample on a regular basis as other families complete their par ticipation. For the survey as a whole, 20 percent of the sample is dropped and a new group added each quarter. This rotating procedure is designed to improve efficiency now that the survey is continuous. Another new feature of the survey is that students living in college- or university-regulated housing report their own expenditures directly while at school rather than being considered part of their parents’ households. The Interview survey collects detailed data on an estimated 60 to 70 percent of total household expenditures. In addition, global estimates, that is, expense pat terns for a 3-month period, are obtained for food and other selected items. These global estimates account for an additional 20 to 25 percent of total expend itures. In the Diary survey, respondents are requested to report all expendditures made during their 2-week participation in the survey. All data collected in both surveys are subject to Census and bls confidentiality requirements, which prevent the disclosure of respondents’ identities. The Quarterly Interview portion of the survey was designed to collect data on major items of expense, household characteristics, and income. The expendditures covered by the survey were those which respondents could be expected to recall fairly accurately for 3 months or longer. Each sample household was in terviewed once per quarter for five consecutive quarters. Data collected in each quarter were considered independent so that annual estimates are not dependent upon the participation of a consumer unit for the full five quarters. Data collec tion activities have been conducted on a continuous basis since October 1979. For the initial interview, information is collected on demographic and family Sample design The samples for the consumer expenditure surveys are national probability samples of households designed to be representative of the urban U.S. civilian population. The eligible population is composed of all civilian noninstitutional persons (see appendix A for a detailed definition of the eligible population). The first step in sampling was the selection of primary sampling units (psu ’s) which consist of counties (or parts thereof), groups of counties, or independent cities. The set of sample PSU’s used for the survey is composed of 101 areas, of which 85 have been previously defined and selected by the bls for the c pi . The psu ’s in this part of the design represent only the urban part of the United States and are classified according to the following four categories: ‘A’ PSU’s, which comprise 27 certainty areas (i.e., they are self-representing) and are primarily large metropolitan areas; 20 ‘B’ psu ’s, defined as metropolitan areas with a total 1970 population of over 400,000; 22 ‘C’ PSU’s, defined as metropolitan areas 136 with a total 1970 population of 400,000 or less; and 16 ‘D’ PSU’s, defined as ur ban places in all nonmetropolitan areas. Since these PSU’s were selected with probability proportional to urban population and therefore do not represent the nonmetropolitan rural population, it was necessary to supplement this design with 16 additional PSU’s (denoted as ‘E’ PSU’s) representing the rural population of the country. The B, C, and D PSU’s were selected using a controlled selection procedure to insure a distribution across States and other stratifying characteristics. Due to budget constraints in 1981, the rural areas outside of SMSA’s (E PSU’s) of the sample were temporarily discontinued. These are includ ed again beginning in 1984. The sampling frame (that is, the list from which housing units were chosen) for this survey was generated from the 1970 census 100-percent-detail file, augmented by new construction permits and techniques used to eliminate recognized deficiencies in coverage in that census. All Enumeration Districts (ED’s) from the 1970 Census that failed to meet the criterion for good addresses and all ED’s in nonpermit issuing areas are grouped into the area segment frame. The sample design is a rotating panel survey in which approximately 8,400 ad dresses are contacted in each of the five calendar quarters. Allowing for bound ing interviews, which are not included in estimates, and for nonresponse (in cluding vacancies), the number of usable interviews per quarter is targeted at 4,800. Each quarter, one-fifth of the units interviewed are new to the survey. After being interviewed for five consecutive quarters, each panel is dropped from the survey. Table B-1.

This compares to 89 percent in 1972-73. Of the 58,898 units assigned for interview in 1980-81, 7,772, or 13 percent, were classified as Type B or C nonresponses. Type B or C nonresponses accounted for 3,080 units, or 12 percent of the 25,627 total units assigned for interview in 1972-73. Type A nonresponse rates of 16 percent in 1980-81 and 11 percent in 1972-73 are con sidered relatively low for this type of survey. Weighting Each sample household included in the survey represents a given number of households in the U.S. population, which is the universe. The translation of sample households into the universe of households is known as weighting. However, since the unit of analysis for the survey is a consumer unit, the final weight is at the consumer unit level. There are five basic steps in determining the weight for each consumer unit for which an interview is obtained:1 Response rates Response rates were relatively high in the 1980-81 consumer expenditure survey, although they were slightly below the 1972-73 survey levels. There are two general categories of nonresponse: 1. The basic weight assigned to an address is the inverse of the probability of selection of the housing unit. Type A nonresponses include refusals, temporary absences, and noncontacts. 2. A weight control factor is given to each interview if subsampling is per formed in the field. Types B and C nonresponses include housing vacancies, housing under con struction, housing with temporary residents, destroyed or abandoned hous ing, and units converted to nonresidential use. 3. A noninterview adjustment is made for interviews which could not be col lected from occupied housing units because of refusals or because no one was home (type A). The adjustment is performed as a function of region, tenure, family size, and race. Type A nonresponses were considered to be ‘eligible’ units since those units were able to participate but either chose not to do so or could not be contacted. Types B and C nonresponses were not counted as eligible units since these ad dresses no longer existed or were otherwise out of scope. Table B-l analyzes the level of response of the housing units designated for interview in the 1972-73 and 1980-81 surveys. Of the 51,126 housing units eligi 4.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics, upon receipt of the data from the Bureau of the Census, conducts an extensive review to ensure that severe data aberrations are corrected. The review takes place in several stages: A review of counts and means by region; a review of family rela tionship coding inconsistencies; a review of selected extreme values (both high and low) for expenditure and income categories; and a verification of the various data transformations performed by bls . Cases of questionable data values or relationships are investigated by looking up questionnaires on microfilm. Errors discerned through this procedure are corrected prior to release of the data for public use. Three major types of data adjustment routines—imputation, allocation, and time adjustment—are carried out to improve the estimates derived from the In terview survey. Data imputation routines account for missing or invalid entries and affect all fields in the data base except income and assets. Missing or invalid attributes as well as expenditures are imputed. Allocation routines are applied when respondents provided insufficient detail to meet tabulation requirements. For example, combined group expenditures for fuels and utilities are allocated among the components of that group such as gas. Time adjustment routines are used to classify expenditures by month prior to aggregation of the data to calendar-year expenditures. Tabulations are made before and after the data ad justment routines to analyze the results. Data collection and processing Data collection was carried out by the Census Bureau under contract with In addition to its collection duties, the Census Bureau was responsible for field editing and coding, consistency checking, quality control, and transmitting the data to bls . bls performed additional review and editing procedures in preparing the data for publication. bls. Census activities. Census data collection activities have been conducted on a continuing basis since October 1979 for the Quarterly Interview survey. Due to differences in format and design, the Interview survey and the Diary survey are collected and processed separately. Upon completion by respondents and interviewers, the Interview question naires are returned to the regional offices, where codes are applied to identify demographic characteristics, expenditures, income and assets, and other items such as make and model of automobile and trip destination. Upon completion of the clerical processing, the data are keyed and transmitted to the Census Pro cessing Center in Washington, D.C., where they pass through a detailed com puter preedit. Information on missing sections of questionnaires, inconsisten cies, and errors is transmitted back to the regional offices for reconciliation by the field staff through office review or interviewer followup. Corrections are keyed and transmitted to Washington, and again cycled through the computer preedit. This continues until errors identified by the preedit no longer appear. Once a panel month’s preedit is complete, selected data are transcribed to the next quarter’s questionnaire. The current quarter’s questionnaire is sent to the Data Preparation Division in Jeffersonville, Indiana, for microfilming and storage. The data then go through another series of complex computer edits and ad justments which include the identification and correction of data irregularities and inconsistencies throughout the questionnaire. Other adjustments convert mortgage and vehicle payments into principal and interest using associated data on the interest rate and term of the loan, eliminate business and other reimburs ed expenses, apply appropriate sales taxes, and derive weights for individual questionnaires. In addition, demographic and work-experience items (except in come) are imputed when missing or invalid. All data changes and imputations are identified with flags on the Interview data file. Final tapes of the edited and Reliability of data Sample surveys are subject to two types of errors, nonsampling and sampling. Nonsampling errors can be attributed to many sources, such as definitional dif ficulties, differences in the interpretation of questions, inability or unwillingness of the respondent to provide correct information, mistakes in recording or coding the data obtained, and other errors of collection, response, processing, coverage, and estimation for missing data. The full extent of the nonsampling error is unknown. Sampling errors occur because observations are not taken from the entire population. The sample estimate and its estimated standard error enables one to construct confidence intervals used to perform tests of hypotheses. Tables with coefficients of variation and other reliability statistics are available on request. However, since these are cell specific, these tables are extensive. 138 Appendix C. Comparison of 1972-73 and 1980-81 Surveys Tables C-l through C-5 compare the 1980-81 survey data with results from the 1972-73 survey. Adjustments were made to the data to account for dif ferences in concepts and definitions between the surveys. The most important adjustments to the previously published 1972-73 data are summarized below, and a detailed concordance between the surveys is given in table C-6. other transportation, are included with the appropriate component rather than with recreation. • Consumer units that responded to the income question but reported zero in come are considered to be incomplete income reporters. In the 1972-73 survey, zero responses were considered valid. • The population is limited to the urban population as defined in 1980-81. • ‘Total expenditures’ include total consumption, as defined in 1972-73, plus personal insurance, retirement and pension payments (including Social Security payments), and gifts and contributions. • Gifts of goods are now included with the appropriate component. For exam ple, apparel gifts are included with apparel expenditures. The value of these gifts is shown in the addenda on each reference table. • Expenditures while on trips, including those for food, lodging, gasoline, and 139 • Only income data for complete reporters are shown in the tables. The average income for complete income reporters is an approximation of average income for all respondents. In 1972-73, average income data were published for all respondents, complete and incomplete. Table C-6 compares 1972-73 expenditure groupings, as they were shown in table B-2 of Bulletin 1997, published in 1978, with the new 1980-81 format. The left column shows the 1980-81 format. The next column shows which 1972-73 item codes need to be combined to match or approximate the 1980-81 level. Table C-1.
