GENERAL NOTES
----------------------
In cases where the original survey provides expenditures according to the COICOP classification, this variable is the sum over the expenditure variables above. Otherwise, it is either derived from the "total expenditures" variable in the original survey (if available) or is left blank.

COUNTRY SPECIFIC NOTES
----------------------------------
Since the period over which the expenditure data are collected is not identified in the data file, a check on average expenses on food, non food and total expenditure was done and compared to the figures provided by DOS. It was found that amounts provided are already annualized.

Items aggregated under each expenditure type are identified in "Expenditure Aggregates" file.
