COUNTRY SPECIFIC NOTES
----------------------------------
• Products need to be restructured in order that each product represents a variable.
• All expenditure items were summated from the products data file (indicating monthly amounts in NIS).
• All expenditures were annualized (multiplied by 12).
• The labels of the following 8 products (1518, 3635, 5025, 5026, 5027, 5028, 5029, 5325)
are not identified neither in the original survey data file nor the coding sheet or later data sets (no questionnaire available), and they were not available in previous data sets, hence they could not be labeled in the data file but they were categorized among expenditure aggregates as per their codes.
• Expenditure items aggregated under each expenses type are identified in "expenditure aggregates" sheet.
