The aim of the question is to provide data of the standard of living of the households in the country.

A. If the item is at the disposal of the family, mark an X in box 1, under Yes. If the item is not at the disposal of the family, mark an X in box 2, under No. Mark an X and not the number of appliances in the house.

Example: If there are two telephone instruments in the house, or even two separate telephone lines, write an X in box 1 and not the number of telephone instruments.

B. Mark an X in box 1 (Yes) even if the items are not owned by the tenants, but used by them.

Example: A person, who lives in a rented apartment and uses the washer of the renter, has to mark an X in box 1 next to the washer.

C. If there are two or more households in the apartment, and the items are at the disposal of all people in the apartment, each household will mark the Yes answers next to these items in the questionnaire.
