Interviewer instructions
This expenditure group includes the expenses of family members on recreational goods and activities such as going to the movies, picnics, cable TV subscription, etc. As in other expenditure groups, if the family purchased the items or paid for the service in cash or on credit, enter the amount in D2 (a).
But if the family received the items as gifts or availed of the services for free, then the corresponding value of such items or services will be entered in D2 (b). An example is a complimentary pass to the movies for one year. However, do not include in D2 (b) the value of occasional free treats to the movies.
If the family member raised fighting cocks strictly for pleasure (i.e., as his “pangsabong”), the amount spent in buying and raising the fowl is to be included in this expenditure group. Also included in this item are membership fees to hobby clubs, resorts, etc. If the family keeps a pet, the amount spent for the care (e.g., food, visits to the veterinarian, etc.) of the family pet is likewise included in this item.
Include also under these item ornamental plants and orchids purchased which are raised as a hobby including the fertilizers, insecticides, charcoal and other incidental expenses in the care of the plants. However, if plants are for sale then this becomes a family-operated activity which should be reported in Part IV.
