Preface
This bulletin presents detailed expenditure and income data from the interview
com ponent of the 1972-73 Consumer Expenditure Survey. Historically, expenditure
surveys have been conducted by the Bureau of Labor Statistics every 10-12 years to
provide a basis for updating the Consumer Price Index and to provide a
com prehensive body of data for market research and economic analysis.
This bulletin was prepared in the Division of Living Conditions Studies, E va E.
Jacobs, Chief, under the general direction of Stephen Baer, C hief o f the Branch of
Consumer Expenditure Studies. The bulletin was prepared under the supervision of
G eorge Weeden. M ajor contributions to the bulletin w ere made by William Passero
and D avid Stallings, for preparation o f the glossary and tables; and by Eugene
Owens, for developm ent of the com puter data file.

Annual Expenditures and Sources of Income Cross-Classified
by Family Characteristics, 1972-73- Combined
T he data in the tables below supplement BLS R eport 455-4. As in
previous reports in the BLS R eport 455 series, the data are preliminary.
Some values presented here may differ from earlier reports and releases
in the interview survey series due to additional processing o f the
quarterly interview data base, slight changing of the definition, and the
combining and averaging of data for the 2 years o f the survey (1972 and
1973). Furtherm ore, data presented below may be subject to further
processing or reclassification before being released in final form.
These tables contain a summary of all the expenditure data collected
in the interview survey and also present detail on sources o f income, net
changes in assets and liabilities, personal taxes, information on goods and
services received w ithout direct expense, m ortgage principal paid on
owned property, and m arket value o f financial assets. Most o f these data
are shown as annual averages, except for m arket value of financial assets
and net changes in assets and liabilities, w hich are com puted as the
average o f the tw o end-of-survey-year values. Percent reporting figures
are shown for all data except for the family characteristics shown at the
beginning o f each table.
Twenty-nine tabulations are presented in this release. In five tabul­
ations, families are classified by individual family characteristics,
including family income before taxes, education o f family head, housing
tenure, family composition, and type of area. Eighteen tabulations
present family income before taxes cross-classified by family size, race of
family head, age o f family head, and region. Six additional tabulations
present family size cross-classified by age of family head. Expenditures
are shown as annual averages for the combined 2-year period of the
survey. Expenses which w ere incurred in connection with the operation
o f a business w ere not included in the survey.
E ven though the data represent all expenditure categories in the
interview survey, they do not constitute total expenditures because not

all items o f expense w ere collected in the interview survey. F o r
example, the household operations category does not include house­
keeping supplies, which were reported exclusively in the diary survey.
F o r the same reason, the medical care category does not include
nonprescription drugs. In addition, it should be noted that food at home
is not the sum of item detail, as in the diary survey, but is the response to
a set of global questions. A more detailed account for food is available
from the diary com ponent and has been published in the BLS R eport
448 series. T he user should also be aware that expenditures for owned
dwellings exclude payments on the m ortgage principal, which appear as
a separate line item and are included as a reduction in liabilities. A
com plete glossary appears on page 501.
The expenditures shown for each category do not include gifts to
organizations or to persons outside the family. All gift expenditures are
summed and tabulated in a separate category as gifts and contributions.
Gift expenditures as a proportion o f consumption expenditures tend to
vary by consumption category. F o r example, the proportion of total
clothing expenditures devoted to gifts is likely to be greater than the
proportion o f total furniture expenditures devoted to gifts.
Certain expenditures are tabulated by function. F o r example, gasoline
appears under transportation and also under recreation as part of
vacations and trips. Total gasoline is the sum o f the tw o parts. O ther
com ponents that are treated similarly are food, alcoholic beverages,
lodging, and other transportation.
The average annual expenditure data shown are for all families with
specified characteristics, regardless of w hether the families incurred an
expense for a given product or service during the survey period. Thus,
Table 1 shows the average annual expenditure for television sets over
the 2-year period to be $46.54. How ever, only 15.8 percent o f the
families reported purchases o f a T V set. By dividing $46.54 by 15.8
in

percent, it can be determ ined that the average expenditure for those
families making the purchases was $294.55.
A n individual family may spend m ore or less than the average,
depending on its particular set o f characteristics. F o r example, families
in the South (Table 28) spent, on average, $93.18 per year on m ajor
appliances, while the average for all three-person families in the United
States (Table 20) was $117.53. Even among families having similar
characteristics, expenditures may differ substantially. Users should also
keep in mind that prices for m any goods and services have risen sharply
since the survey was conducted.
Certain income and financial data contain values w ith negative signs.
These occur either because o f special processing requirements, or
because losses or reductions in value w ere recorded. F o r example, net
incom e from ow n business and ow n farm are negatively signed w hen
losses w ere experienced; and data for assets and liabilities may be
negatively signed to reflect reductions in these items. T o com pute the
net change in assets and liabilities as a group, the user should subtract
the signed liability value from the signed asset value. T he items which

are negatively signed only because of special processing requirem ents
are: personal taxes, union dues, occupational expenses, and m ortgage
principal payments.
Sample surveys are subject to tw o types o f errors, sampling and
nonsampling. Sampling errors occur because observations are not taken
from the entire population. Table columns and cells w hich represent
fewer than 217,500 and 18,500 families, respectively, are likely to have
large sampling errors. Nonsampling errors can be attributed to many
sources; such as inability to obtain information about all the respondents
in the sample, definitional difficulties, differences in the interpretation o f
questions, inability or unwillingness o f 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. This may apply especially to the alcoholic
beverages and tobacco components, which have historically experi­
enced low levels of reporting in household interview surveys. T he
accuracy of the results of a survey is determ ined by the joint effects o f
sampling and nonsampling errors.

T he Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) com pleted its most recent Consumer
Expenditure Survey in June 1974. The survey, covering the years 1972 and 1973, is
the only com prehensive source of detailed information on family expenditures and
income related to socioeconomic and dem ographic characteristics o f U.S. families.
T he survey, conducted with the assistance of the Bureau of the Census, consisted of
tw o separate components: (1) a diary or recordkeeping survey com pleted by
respondents for tw o 1-week periods, and (2) an interview panel survey in which
families reported information to interview ers every 3 m onths over a 15-month
period. Both com ponents of the survey were conducted for 2 successive years. The
diary com ponent covered the period July 1972-June 1974, and the interview
com ponent covered the 1972 and 1973 calendar years. In each 12-month period,
responses w ere obtained from approximately 10,000 families. Background informa­
tion concerning the design, conduct, and uses of both com ponents o f the survey
appears in “T he 1972-73 Consumer Expenditure Survey,” published in the
D ecem ber 1974 issue of the Monthly Labor Review.

3/ Data represent only those expenditures collected in the interview survey, not the total of
all family expenditures.
4/ Value less than 0.05 percent

1/
Data in columns which represent less than 218,000 consumer units or in cells
which represent less than 18,500 consumer units are likely to have large sampling
errors.
2/
Percents may not sum to 100 due to rounding.
3/
Data represent only those expenditures collected in the interview survey, not
the total of all family expenditures.

Data in columns which represent less than 218,000 consumer units or in cells which represent less than 18,500
consumer units are likely to have large sampling errors.
Percents may not sum to 100 due to rounding.
Data represent only those expenditures collected in the interview survey, not the total of all family expenditures.
