Description

In the data file a_income_protect.dta, what is the format of the data for the variable a_frmnthimp.dv? I am asking this as we are getting a mean value of 313 pounds for the total income from source and this seems like a terribly low value for a mean total income.

Any help or explanation would be greatly appreciated!

Hello

This file contains one row for each source of income for each person. This variable shows the total income from that source not for that person. To get the total income for the person see A_FIMNGRS_DV in the file A_INDRESP

Best wishes,
Alita
