FIES Volume1: Data on Income and ExpenditureProduction Date

Abstract
The 2009 Family Income and Expenditure Survey (FIES 2009) is a nationwide survey of households undertaken by the National Statistics Office (NSO). It is the main source of data on family income and expenditures. From 1957 to 1975, the FIES was conducted every five years. However, in 1985, a new series of FIES (in terms of content and methodology) had begun and the gap of conducting this survey was reduced to three years. Hence, this is the fifteenth FIES since March 1957.
Like the previous surveys, this undertaking aims to accomplish the following objectives:
to gather data on family income and family living expenditure and related information affecting income and expenditure levels and patterns in the Philippines;
to determine the sources of income and income distribution, levels of living and spending patterns, and the degree of inequality among families;
to provide benchmark information to update weights in the estimation of Consumer Price Index (CPI); and
to provide inputs in the estimation of the country's poverty threshold and incidence.
Kind of Data
Sample survey data [ssd]Units of Analysis
The reporting unit was the household which implied that the statistics emanating from this survey referred to the characteristics of the population residing in private households. Institutional population is not within the scope of the survey. For FIES, the concept of family was used. A family consists of the household head, spouse, unmarried children, ever-married children, son-in-law/daughter-in-law, parents of the head/spouse and other relatives who are members of the household.
In addition, two or more persons not related to each other by blood, marriage or adoption are also considered in this survey. However, only the income and expenditure of the member who is considered as the household head are included.
Scope
Notes
The survey will gather income and expenditure data that include, among others, sources of income in cash and in kind and the levels of consumption by item of expenditure.Keywords

Geographic Coverage
The 2003 Master Sample (MS) considers the country’s 17 administrative regions as defined inExecutive Orders (EO) 36 and 131 as the sampling domains. A domain is referred to
as a subdivision of the country for which estimates with adequate level of precision
are generated. It must be noted that while there is demand for data at the provincial
level (and to some extent municipal and barangay levels), the provinces were not
treated as sampling domains because there are more than 80 provinces which would
entail a large resource requirement. Below are the 17 administrative regions of the
country:
National Capital Region
Cordillera Administrative Region
Region I - Ilocos
Region II – Cagayan Valley
Region III – Central Luzon
Region IVA – CALABARZON
Region IVB – MIMAROPA
Region V – Bicol
Region VI – Western Visayas
Region VII - Central Visayas
Region VIII - Eastern Visayas
Region IX - Zamboanga Peninsula
Region X - Northern Mindanao
Region XI - Davao
Region XII - SOCCSKSARGEN
Region XIII - Caraga
Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao
Universe
The survey involved the interview of a national sample of about 51,000 sample households deemed sufficient to provide reliable estimates of income and expenditure at the national and regional level.The 2006 FIES has as its target population, all households and members of households nationwide. A household is defined as an aggregate of persons, generally but not necessarily bound by ties of kinship, who live together under the same roof and eat together or share in common the household food. Household membership comprises the head of the household, relatives living with him such as his/her spouse, children, parent, brother/sister, son-in-law/daughter-in-law, grandson/granddaughter and other relatives. Household membership likewise includes boarders, domestic helpers and non-relatives. A person who lives alone is considered a separate household.
