| Definition: |
|
The classification of individual consumption by purpose (COICOP) is a classification used to classify both individual consumption expenditure and actual individual consumption.
|
| Context: |
COICOP is one of the "functional" classifications designed to classify certain transactions of producers and of three institutional sectors, namely household, general government and non- profit institutions serving households. They are described as "functional" classifications because they identify the "functions" - in the sense of "purposes" or "objectives" - for which these groups of transactors engage in certain transactions. The classifications concerned are:
- Classification of individual consumption by purpose (COICOP).
- Classification of the functions of government (COFOG).
- Classification of the purposes of non-profit institutions serving households (COPNI).
- Classification of outlays of producers by purpose (COPP).
