The Consumer Expenditure Surveys are used to gather information on expenditures, income, and other related subjects. These data are used to periodically update the national Consumer Price Index. In addition the data are used by a variety of researchers in academia, government agencies, and the private sector. The data are collected from a national probability sample of households designed to represent the total civilian non-institutional population.

Reporting burden has decreased from 60,052 to 58,835 despite the additional burden associated with the Incentives/Outlets test. This is the result of the completion of the Proof of Concept Test, elimination of the bounding interview, and the full implementation of the new sample. Estimated response burden hours is calculated using actual data collection times over the last two years.
