Third, the absence of detailed figures on food expenditures and quantities consumed at the individual level in the survey may hide interesting and important aspects of malnutrition in the country.
This 'Multi-Purpose Survey' (MPS) included detailed information on the demographic and social characteristics of households, their economic activities and housing conditions in addition to detailed figures on households' earnings, expenditures and quantities consumed of food and non-food items.
The NSSO surveys provide information on expenditures and quantity of tobacco products consumed by households, from which unit values are estimated.
For every household, data on expenditure and quantity bought (in liters per month) for all products and services, household income, and detailed information on household characteristics were gathered.
In the literature, there are two main methods for retrieving price data from expenditure and quantity variables: using unit values as proxy for market prices, as Abdulai ([2002]) or Akbay et al. ([2007]) did by dividing the expenditure by the quantity consumed.
Government consumption on goods and services follows the same hypothesis in the way that, given current expenditure budget, quantity demand for each commodity is distributed in fixed shares and varies inversely related to its price.
Instead the total expenditures and the quantities of resource use are described.
Despite heavy casualties and the expenditure of enormous quantities of ammunition, an Allied offensive in March 1944 failed to break the Gustav Line position.
We also estimated equations which considered prices based on the expenditures on tobacco and quantity smoked (both undoubtedly measured with error), and obtained roughly consistent results.
These losses are associated with a higher expenditure on the quantity [Q2Q4] that is imported from country F. Meanwhile, following the RTA formation, the gains of country F are increased from the pre-adjustments area [CIXV + KGW] (see previous section) to the post-adjustments area [CIιXιV + KιGιWι].
