Title: Expenditures: Beef by Size of Consumer Unit: Two People in Consumer Unit Series ID: CXUBEEFLB0504M Source: U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Release: Consumer Expenditure Surveys Seasonal Adjustment: Not Seasonally Adjusted Frequency: Annual Units: U.S. Dollars Date Range: 1984-01-01 to 2022-01-01 Last Updated: 2023-09-14 4:12 PM CDT Notes: Size refers to the number of persons whose usual place of residence at the time of the interview is in the sample unit. A consumer unit comprises either: (1) all members of a particular household who are related by blood, marriage, adoption, or other legal arrangements; (2) a person living alone or sharing a household with others or living as a roomer in a private home or lodging house or in permanent living quarters in a hotel or motel, but who is financially independent; or (3) two or more persons living together who use their income to make joint expenditure decisions. Financial independence is determined by the three major expense categories: Housing, food, and other living expenses. To be considered financially independent, at least two of the three major expense categories have to be provided entirely, or in part, by the respondent.
