Average per capita expenditure is the cost incurred for the consumption of all household members for a month, whether from purchases, gifts, or self-production, divided by the number of household members. Household consumption is distinguished between food and non-food consumption without regard to the origin of the goods and is limited to expenditure for household needs only, excluding consumption/expenditure for business purposes or given to others.

Both food and non-food consumption are then converted into average monthly expenditure.
