In the Communication of the Statistical Office of the Republic of Serbia, LP12 (no 69 of March 15, 2009) published are the data obtained through Household Budget Survey, which has been conducted since 2003 according to international standards and recommendations of Eurostat, ILO and UN, thus providing international data comparability. The survey collects the data on income, expenditure and household consumption, i.e. the data on basic elements of individual consumption. Besides, the survey compiles also the data on some important living standard indicators (dwelling conditions, supply with durable consumer goods, etc.), as well as some basic data related to demographic, economic and social features of households.
A survey unit is taken to be every single - or several – member household, selected according to the sample plan. A household is: a) a community of persons, whose members live and prepare food together and jointly spend the earned income; b) a single person, living, preparing food and spending the earned income on his/her own.
The survey applies the method of the diary keeping (a household keeps a consumption diary for fifteen, i.e. sixteen days), regarding individual consumption of goods and services and the interview method on the basis of questionnaires, where the reference period for durables is twelve months, for semi-durables – three months and for earnings, agriculture, hunting and fishing - three months.
In this survey, a two-stage stratified sample is applied, with enumeration districts as primary and households as secondary selection units. The basic geographic stratums are the territories of Central Serbia and Vojvodina. Every fifteen days, 200 households are interviewed, i.e. 4800 households annually. Of the total number of households envisaged for interview in the fourth quarter (1200 for the Republic of Serbia), the number of 1126 households (94%) was interviewed.
According to the Eurostat recommendations, balance approach is not applied in the survey (income and expenditure balance); however, applied is the concept of ‘consumption expenditures’ (individual consumption expenditures), which are classified pursuant to the Classification of individual consumption by purpose (COICOP-HBS).
The value of goods and services for individual consumption is registered, regardless of the fact whether they were purchased for cash money or on credit.
The value of products or services of own production (natural consumption) is registered according to purchase prices.
The published data relate to available and spent budget of individual consumption in the fourth quarter of 2009 and they present average monthly values per a household, expressed in dinars (RSD). The data are published for the Republic of Serbia (without Kosovo and Metohia), Central Serbia, Central Serbia (without the City of Belgrade), the City of Belgrade and Vojvodina, respective to all households.
