The Household Expenditure Enquiry of the Ministry of Labour

W. F. F. Kemsley

Journal of the Royal Statistical Society Series C, 1961, vol. 10, issue 3, 117-135

Abstract: The 1953‐54 enquiry relied on record books for most of the information on expenditure. These records were kept by each household for a period of three weeks, and this paper examines the variation between the three weeks for a wide range of items. The existence of a significant difference between expenditure in the first week and the other two weeks is demonstrated, and the variation in this difference analysed by type of area and season of the year.
