Tonga Household Income and Expenditure Survey 2000-2001

Date modified: 01 April 2019

The Household Income and Expenditure Survey 2000/01 (HIES) was carried out by the Tonga Statistics Department over a 12-month period, from October 2000 to September 2001. The survey collected detailed information on income and expenditure from more than 1,600 households. All adult members age 15 years and over of these households kept a detailed diary of daily expenditure over a two-week period.

The survey had three main objectives: • To provide updated information for the expenditure item weights for the CPI; • To provide some data for the components of National Accounts; and • To provide information on the nature and distribution of household income and expenditure for planners, policy makers, and the general public.

The 2000-2001 Household Income and Expenditure Survey covered the following topics:
- Household Identification Particulars
- Household Composition
- Value of Output and Payments for Goods and Services for the Last 12 Months
- Sources of Household Income and Receipts for the Last 12 Months
- Household Consumption and Expenditure
- Daily Expenditure on Food (2 weeks)
