Average per capita expenditure refers to the cost incurred for the consumption of all household members over a month, encompassing purchases, gifts, and self-produced goods, divided by the number of household members. Household consumption is categorized into food and non-food consumption, regardless of the origin of goods, and is limited to household needs only, excluding consumption/expenditure for business purposes or given to others.

Expenditure on food consumption is calculated weekly, while non-food consumption is calculated monthly and for the past 12 months. Both food and non-food consumption are then converted into average monthly expenditure. The average per capita consumption/expenditure figures presented in BPS publications are derived from dividing the total consumption of all households (both consuming food and non-food items) by the total population.

According to BPS (Statistics Indonesia), this decrease in expenditure is attributed to the month-to-month inflation rate in this region, which reached 4.35%. Meanwhile, economic growth in 2023 was recorded at 4.35%.
