Notes

GENERAL NOTES
----------------------
In case where the own produced food items are also included in code 01 we need to abstract from OWNP
=FOODEXP+CATSER+SCHRST

COUNTRY SPECIFIC NOTES
----------------------------------
All expenditure items were summated from the products data file (indicating monthly amounts in NIS).
All monthly amounts were annualized.

The labels of the following 8 products (1518, 3635, 5025, 5026, 5027, 5028, 5029, 5325) are not identified neither in the data file nor the coding sheet or previous/later data sets, hence they could not be labeled in the data file but they were categorized among expenditure aggregates as per their coding groups.

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