Ghana - INDEPTH Study on Global Ageing and Adult Health 2007, Wave 1

I would like to ask you some questions about how much your household and all its members spends on food, household items, health services and other things. Expenditures can be monetary or in-kind. The value of in-kind payments and items produced or raised, and consumed, by the household need to be estimated and included. We ask about different time periods, so please listen carefully to the time frame.

For all questions in this section report all values in local currency, whether paid in cash or in kind.

I would like to start by asking about household expenses over the last 7 days. The next questions are about food items purchased by the household. I would like to start with asking details about the types of food your household has purchased in cash or kind and/or self-produced goods consumed in the last 7 days.

In the last 7 days, how much did your household spend on:

Spices and oils (salt, sugar, curry, garlic, ginger, pepper, chilli, or other - butter, lard, cooking oils (coconut oil, palm oil, vegetable oil, corn oil))?
