Abstract

The Household Budget Survey (HBS) was carried out to get information from private households on economic activities, household income, expenditure, housing characteristics as well as asset ownership. HBS outlined the final poverty statistics for 2011/12. The aspect of comparison of poverty trends with previous HBS's was presented in the survey taking into account the improvements that were made to the HBS 2011/12.The basic needs approach is used to measure absolute poverty in mainland Tanzania . The data collection for the survey lasted for a period of one year and covered 10,400 randomly selected households in mainland Tanzania. The survey was carried out by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) in collaboration with the Poverty Eradication Division in the Ministry of Finance in Mainland Tanzania.

The objectives of the HBS included: 1. To acquire data on households levels of consumption and expenditure which can be used for poverty mapping and analyzing the changes in standard of living over time when HBS is repeated. 2. To constitute a platform in order to specify a set of basic economic and social welfare indicators to be monitored at regular time intervals. 3. To obtain macro estimates of household consumption and expenditure patterns to construct the weighting system for the Consumer Price Index (CPI) 4. To provide macroeconomic estimates, on the household consumption for the National Accounts. 5. To obtain household consumption and expenditure patterns to make market analysis. 6. Ownership of durable goods and income generating facilities 7. To obtain data on non-expenditure consumption, i.e. consumption of own production, payments in kind and barter, which can only be measured by a survey like HBS.

Sampling procedure

The Household Budget Survey (HBS) was administered to a representative sample of households. A total of 10,400 households were selected and 10,186 households completed the interview. The survey was based on the 2002 Population and Housing Census (PHC) frame. Sampling weights were used to make estimates representative of population. This survey provided estimates for mainland Tanzania as a whole. A stratified multi-stage sample design was used for this survey. At the first stage the primary sampling units (PSUs) selected 400 enumeration areas (EAs). At the second stage the EAs had an average of 133 households each, (155 for rural EAs and 94 for urban EAs), this was an effective size for conducting a new listing of households. In each enumeration area 26 households were covered for one year.
