Summary/Abstract: At the end of 1973 and the beginning of 1974, the Federal Bureau of Statistics carried out a special investigation into the revenue, expenditure and consumption of households in 1973. The survey included, among other things, collection of data on the percentage of households with specific durable consumer goods. About 18,000 households in urban, rural and mixed areas were surveyed. The data presented in this article relate to 5,585 households surveyed. Relative to the results of the similar surveys conducted in 1968 and 1973, this most recent inquiry shows certain changes in the socio-economic composition of the households interviewed. The proportion of agricultural households decreased from 26.9 to 21.5 per cent, the proportion of mixed household increased from 24.5 to 27.5 per cent, and of non-agricultural from 38.6 to 51 per cent1 2.
