Preface

Statistic and Census Service conducted the 2002/03 Household Budget Survey (02/03 HBS) from 29 September 2002 to 27 September 2003. Information was collected from a total of 5,070 living quarters in various districts in Macao. Household Budget Survey is a sampling survey carried out once every five years; consequently, the 02/03 HBS was the first household budget survey conducted after Macao’s Handover to the People’s Republic of China.

This report is a compilation of the data collected from the 02/03 HBS, it provides the up-to-date information on the consumption expenditure and income of households in Macao;

for instance, types of expenses, consumption patterns and structures. In addition, this report includes statistical indicators on the income distribution of households. Taking into consideration that household consumption patterns are influenced by the overall economic conditions; they are also affected by the levels of household income as well as other socio-demographic factors, for example, household size and household composition. As a result, results of the 02/03 HBS can provide important reference to research studies carried out by members of the public and the government.

We would like to express our gratitude to the co-operative households for their participation in this survey; moreover, we are glad to provide necessary assistance to data users and all suggestions that will help to improve the quality of our work are most welcome.

Methodology

Scope and coverage

Scope and coverage of the 2002/03 Household Budget Survey (02/03 HBS) included all households living in Macao Peninsula and Islands. However, it excluded marine population residing in boats as well as persons in collective quarters, for example, hotels and hospitals. Regarding to the type of housing, this survey covered private housing, economic housing as well as social housing.

Statistical unit

The principal statistical unit of 02/03 HBS was household, defined as persons that make common provision for food and other essentials for living, they need not all to be related to one another. A household may occupy part or all of a living quarter. In addition, resident domestic helper was included. Furthermore, anyone that satisfied the above definition and stayed for 8 days or more was considered as a member of the household. Excluded were those who were away from the surveyed household for 1 week or more.

The fundamental statistical units of HBS comprised the living quarters, households as well as individuals. Therefore, information on demographic and socio-economic aspects of individual household member would be collected, together with characteristics of the living quarter.

Data collection method

Data collection period for the 02/03 HBS lasted for one whole year that was divided into 26 cycles of 195 living quarters each. Hence, it helped to collect and monitor respective changes of the consumption pattern in different seasons.

In general, data collection method for this survey was similar to the previous HBS conducted in 1998/99. It was a combination of direct interview in gathering information on designated income and expenditure items, together with an Expenses Diary to be completed by respondents for a two-week recording period.

In order to facilitate respondents in providing accurate information, several reference

schedules were established accordingly, as follows:

(8)

a) Daily spending, during the 2-week recording period, on goods and services bought, place of purchase, amount spent and quantity acquired;

b) Monthly, quarterly, half-yearly and annual spending on regular and infrequent purchases, amount spent and the frequency of purchase;

c) Possession of durable goods and purchases of durable goods during the reference year;

d) Annual household income, monetary transfer receipts, income in-kind as well as non-monetary transfer receipts during the reference year.

Type of questionnaires

The main objective of the HBS is to collect information on the total expenditure of households on goods and services as well as the level of household income. Owing to the complexity of the survey that requires households to provide large quantity of data, to ensure smooth collection of the information needed, the questionnaire design has considered factors such as feasibility of the forms used and convenience of reporting of the respondents.

The questionnaires adopted were grouped into 3 principal types, as follows:

a) Questionnaire on living quarter and household – used to record characteristics of the living quarter as well as socio-demographic information of individual member of the household;

b) Expenses Diary – a copy of the Diary was given to every household member aged 14 and above, which was used to record all items of goods and services purchased during the two-week reference period;

c) Supplementary questionnaires – in addition to record household expenses paid

in different reference schedules, the questionnaires also collected information

on possession and purchase of durable goods, regular and other expenditure as

well as annual household income.

(9)

List of classifications

Occupation of an individual, which refers to the set of tasks or duties performed during the reference period, is classified according to the “Classification of Occupations of Macao”.

An economic activity carried out by an individual, an establishment or an enterprise during the reference period is classified according to the “Classification of Economic Activities in Macao – Revision 1”.

Household consumption expenditure on goods and services is classified based on the

“Classification of Individual Consumption According to Purpose” of the United Nations Statistics

Division (UNSD). Consequently, data of the 98/99 HBS were re-grouped and re-compiled to

facilitate statistical analysis and comparison.

Sampling Plan Sample design and sample size

The sampling unit for 02/03 HBS was the living quarter and the observation unit was the household(s). The sampling frame is based on the “Building & Unit Frame” maintained by the Statistics and Census Service. Information of the Frame is updated regularly and every living quarter is identified with a unique “geocode”.

A stratified proportional systematic sample selection was applied for this survey; altogether 5,070 living quarters were selected, which were divided into 26 cycles with 195 housing units each.

Living quarters in the universe were grouped into 14 homogeneous strata based on parish, number of floors of the building and type of building (i.e. private housing and public housing);

description of the stratum was listed as follows:

Stratum Description 01 Living quarters in public housing, Santo António parish

02 Living quarters in public housing, N. S. de Fátima parish 03 Living quarters in public housing, Taipa Island

04 Living quarters in private housing in buildings with 9 or more floors, Santo António parish 05 Living quarters in private housing in buildings with 9 or more floors, São Lázaro parish 06 Living quarters in private housing in buildings with 9 or more floors, São Lourenço parish 07 Living quarters in private housing in buildings with 9 or more floors, Sé parish

08 Living quarters in private housing in buildings with 9 or more floors, N. S. de Fátima parish 09 Living quarters in private housing in buildings with less than 9 floors, Santo António parish 10 Living quarters in private housing in buildings with less than 9 floors, São Lázaro parish 11 Living quarters in private housing in buildings with less than 9 floors, São Lourenço parish 12 Living quarters in private housing in buildings with less than 9 floors, Sé parish

13 Living quarters in private housing in buildings with less than 9 floors, N. S. de Fátima parish

14 Living quarters in private housing, Taipa Island

Estimation of sampling errors

The “Jackknife Repeated Replications (JRR)” method is adopted for the estimation of variance of the parameters for the survey. Hence, the samples are divided into four groups based on the following criteria:

a. Living quarters in private housing, Taipa Island b. Living quarters in public housing

c. Living quarters in private housing in buildings with 9 or more floors, Macao Peninsula d. Living quarters in private housing in buildings with less than 9 floors, Macao Peninsula

Secondly, each group is subdivided into 2 subgroups of equal sizes, a sample replicate is formed in turn by discarding one subgroup and duplicating its complement, altogether 8 sample replicates were formed in the following manner:

* Referred to information of interviewed households only.

In comparison with the 98/99 HBS, the followings were some of the more significant changes:

1) Average number of household per living quarter dropped from 1.07 households in 98/99 to 1.04 households in 02/03. The N. S. de Fátima parish had the highest average, with 1.05 households per living quarter, while the Sé parish had the lowest average, with only 1.00 household.

2) In general, average household size increased from 3.03 persons in 98/99 to 3.18 persons in 02/03.

3) Information on average household size indicated that the N. S. de Fátima parish had the highest average, followed by the Santo António parish, with 3.24 persons and 3.31 persons per household respectively.

a This figure did not represent the resident population of Macao, it referred to the average population during the reference period.

Therefore, it would be inappropriate to compare directly with the Estimates of Macao resident population compiled by DSEC.

(22)

4) Average number of economically active person (labour force) per household rose from 1.55 persons in 98/99 to 1.65 persons in 02/03. Among which the Island and the Santo António parish had the highest average, with 1.74 persons and 1.70 persons per household respectively.

In terms of the distributions of household by parish, the majority of the households (58,700) in Macao lived in the N. S. de Fátima parish, sharing 43.7% of the total; followed by Santo António parish, with 33,800 households (25.2%). On the contrary, the Sé parish had the least number (8,300) of households, which accounted for just 6.2% of the total.

On the contrary, the proportion of one-person households dropped 6.7 percentage points over 98/99. In general, the percentage of households with less than five persons was similar to the results of 98/99, with 84.7%

3. Household consumption expenditure

Apart from the influences brought about by the overall economic conditions, household consumption pattern and changes in the pattern were also affected by level of household income and other socio-demographic factors, for instance, household size and household composition.

Monthly consumption expenditure of all households in Macao amounted to MOP 1.48 billion in 02/03, up 1.0% compared with 98/99. When converted the currency value of the 98/99 period to 02/03-currency

b

, monthly household consumption expenditure grew 8.8% in real terms.

Average monthly consumption expenditure per household was MOP 11,026, dropped 3.9%

compared with 98/99, but increased 3.6% in real terms. On a per-capita basis, monthly consumption expenditure fell 1.4% in real terms, with MOP 3,465.

* Data of the 98/99 HBS had been re-grouped according to the “Classification of Individual Consumption According to Purpose” of the United Nations Statistics Division, which differed marginally compared with information published in the 98/99 HBS report.

Regarding consumption expenditure by section of goods and services, “Food & non-alcoholic beverages” and “Housing, water, electricity, gas & other fuels” comprised the two largest portions of household consumption expenditure, sharing 27.5% and 20.5% respectively; altogether, they accounted for 48.0% of the total, whilst the remaining sections shared less than 10% each.

Household consumption pattern has changed over the past five years, of which “Food &

non-alcoholic beverages” and “Housing, water, electricity, gas & other fuels” decreased 5.9 percentage points and 0.9 percentage point compared with 98/99. On the contrary, respective shares of “Education”, “Recreation & culture” and “Transport” showed increases of 2.2 percentage points, 1.7 percentage points and 1.3 percentage points over 98/99.

b To facilitate statistical comparison in real terms, currency value of the 98/99 HBS is converted to 02/03-currency, by multiplying value of the 98/99 HBS with the cumulative inflation rate during the two survey periods (-7.2072%), i.e.

02/03-currency = 98/99-currency x (1 - 7.2072%).

On average, monthly consumption expenses spent outside Macao totalled at MOP 86 million, which corresponded to approximately MOP 640 per household or MOP 201 on a per-capita basis.

The more popular destinations were Mainland China (70.1% of the total), followed by Hong Kong (17.0%), thus reflecting the fact that household consumption expenditure outside Macao was more concentrated in the neighbouring places of Macao.

Chart 4 Distribution of consumption expenditure outside Macao by destination

Analyzed by monthly income, the proportions of consumption expenditure in Mainland China and in Hong Kong were 87.8% and 9.3% for households with an average monthly income less than MOP 4,000. However, for households with an average monthly income of MOP 20,000 or above, the corresponding shares were 57.3% and 21.0% respectively.

major portion of the expenditure of households with an average monthly income less than MOP 4,000 was spent on living essential such as “Housing, water, electricity, gas & other fuels” (30.6%) and “Food & non-alcoholic beverages” (30.5%); altogether, these two sections accounted for 61.1%

of the total. For the households with an average monthly income of MOP 20,000 or above, the respective total was merely 42.6%, i.e. a notable difference of 18.5 percentage points between the two groups.

Among all income groups, households with an average monthly income ranging from MOP 4,000 to MOP 9,999 had the highest proportion of consumption expenditure on “Education”, with 12.2%.

Household consumption pattern links closely to household size. For one-person households,

the proportion of expenditure on “Housing, water, electricity, gas & other fuels” exceeded the

corresponding share of “Food & non-alcoholic beverages” by 2.7 percentage points. As household

size increased, expenditure on “Housing, water, electricity, gas & other fuels” and “Consumption

3.3 Consumption pattern by type of housing

Table 10 indicated that irrespective of the type of housing where households lived, i.e. private housing, economic housing and social housing, “Food & non-alcoholic beverages” comprised the largest percentage of household consumption expenditure, sharing 26.9%, 30.3% and 35.9%

respectively. Moreover, expenditure proportion of “Housing, water, electricity, gas & other fuels”

also exceeded 20.0% for those households living in private housing and economic housing, whereas

households living in social housing spent 17.8% on “Education”. The above information implicated

that, in Macao, a substantial portion of household consumption expenditure was spent on living

essentials such as food, housing and education.

4. Total income of household

In 02/03, total monthly income of all households in Macao amounted to MOP 2.06 billion and average monthly income per household was MOP 15,304, up 6.1% and 1.0% respectively over 98/99 in nominal term, which corresponded to 14.3% and 8.8% growth in real term. In addition, average monthly per-capita income increased 3.6% in real term over 98/99, with MOP 4,809.

In comparison with 98/99, the proportion of households with an annual income of MOP 240,000 or above increased 2.2 percentage points, sharing 23.1% of total number of households in Macao. Meanwhile, respective share of households with an annual income of less than MOP 48,000 was 12.2%, up 1.4 percentage points over 98/99. This phenomenon revealed the tendency of polarization of household income in Macao.

Graph 5 Distribution of household by annual income

4.1 Principal sources of household income

Sources of household income comprise “income from employment”, “property income”,

“monetary transfer receipts” as well as “non-monetary transfer receipts”. The principal source of household income in Macao was largely originated from “income from employment”, sharing 69.8% of the total. By detailed components, “income from employment” included “employee

4.3 Income distribution of household

In the analysis of income distribution of household, some the more popular indicators used included Gini coefficient

c

, 80/20 ratio

d

as well as Kuznet’s ratio

e

.

Gini coefficient is used to evaluate the level of income concentration of household;

consequently, value of the Gini coefficient compiled for the 02/03 HBS equaled 0.45, increased marginally from 0.43 in 98/99. The Lorenz curve in Graph 9 depicted distribution of household income in Macao.

% of monthly household income

Analyzed by quintile income group

f

, monthly income for the lowest 20% households amounted to MOP 89 million (4.3% of total household income); furthermore, monthly income per household in this quintile income group fell 1.6%, in real term, over 98/99, with MOP 3,316. In this quintile income group, 0.83% belong to zero income households.

Meanwhile, monthly income for the highest 20% households accounted for 49.4% of the total household income, with MOP 1.02 billion. On average, monthly income amounted to MOP37,792 per household, surged 9.5 % in real term compared with 98/99.

c Gini coefficient that calculated from the Lorenz curve reflects the level of equality in income distribution. Value of the coefficient lies between 0 to 1, this value is close to “0” when income is equally distributed and level of income concentration is low; on the contrary, the value is close to “1” when income is unequally distributed and level of income concentration is high.

d 80/20 ratio refers to the share of the lowest 20% of households in the income quintile to the highest 20% of households. The smallest value is “1”, representing income is equally distributed. A high ratio signifies that income is unequally distributed.

e Kuznet’s ratio is the sum of the absolute values derived from the difference between the percentile share of each quintile income group and the share of income to the total income. The higher the ratio means a higher level of inequality in income distribution.
