Introduction
The Household Expenditure Survey (HES) is an island wide survey used to collect
information on all types of expenditure made by households. The Survey simply seeks
information on how the residents of Bermuda spend their money. The HES also collects
income data so that both income and expenditure patterns are studied to assess how consumer
spending habits have changed over time.
The Household Income Survey (HIS) was conducted by the Department of Statistics,
Malaysia since 1973. However, starting from 1987, The Basic Amenities Survey was
conducted together with Household Income Survey and known as Household Income/Basic
Amenities Survey (HIS/BA). The latest HIS/BA survey was carried out in 2009. The main
objectives of the HIS/BA survey are to measure the economic well-being of the population;
collect information on income distribution pattern of household classified by various socioeconomic characteristics; identify the poor groups; collect information on basic amenities of
household; and study the effects of the implementation of national development program.
The Household Expenditure Survey (HES) was first conducted in the year 1957/58.
Beginning 1993/94 it was carried out at an interval of five years and subsequently in 1998/99.
The recent survey was undertaken in 2009/2010. The survey covers private households in
urban and rural areas.
The main objective of HES is to collect information on the level and pattern of consumption
expenditure by households on a comprehensive range of goods and services. This information
serves as the basis for determining the goods and services to be included in the basket of the
Consumer Price Index (CPI). It is also used to update the CPI weights where the CPI is a
measure of the average rate of change in prices of a fixed basket of goods and services which
represents the expenditure pattern of households in Malaysia.
However, over the years, demand for data from the survey has increased and it is now used
for several purposes. HES has become an invaluable source of information for government
and private sectors, researchers and university students.

In the table of the richest countries above we can see that as the as the income goes down the
table it decreases but in the poorest country as we go down the table the income increases. In
the richest countries table the rate of literacy of all the countries listed are more than 90%. In
the poorer countries the literacy rate is much lower. This concludes that if the country income
increases the rate of literacy can be maintained to a higher percentage.

Reflection
While conducting this project I have learned that after earning a certain amount of
money use of the money wisely. Even after having such small amount of money in hand, the
money should be used as wisely as possible. On the other hand as we have a big amount of
earnings per month the money should be used wisely and have the rest of the money saved.
With the banking system we have currently it would not be a big fuss to save money, just by
having the safe deposit account it much easier to save money for our children or maybe for
future use.
While the project was carried out we had to be very humble and rational asking
questions to family members about the expenses, this is because the money matter is always
sensitive and private. Our group was also very dedicated to finish up the project, so all group
members have gave their best and were punctual on their submission of data and the
calculations and the graph making process.
