Figure 16 shows how the different principal functions compare with one
another in different types of households when intermediate consumption is
excluded from the equation. Especially among people living alone, the figures
for housing production and the provision of meals were considerably smaller
than in other household types. This Figure reiterates the major role of housing,
the provision of meals and (in families with small children) childcare in the
total output value of non-SNA household production.
