Notes: CBSL Economic and Social Statistics, table 2.12. Compiled by DCS. Average Monthly Household Expenditure on Selected Food/Non-Food Items by HIES Survey Period, 1985/86-2019. Periods are HIES survey rounds (freq I), dated at the round's first year. Rows are two-deep: 'Average Monthly Expenditure, Rs' / '... (% share)' at the top, 'Food Expenditure' / 'Non-Food Expenditure' under it, each with its own 'Total' row. The '(% share)' section's own heading text contains '%', so load_ess reads those rows as percentages automatically; everything else is Rs.
