Notes: Requirements used are for men weighing 70 kilograms and for women weighing 60 kilograms. Urban individuals are assumed to need 1.8 times the basal metabolic rate (BMR), while rural individuals are assumed to need 2.0 times the average BMR. Children under one year of age are assigned the average caloric need of children either 3–6, 6–9, or 9–12 months old.
15. Poverty lines and spatial price indexes by region Region Food poverty line Reference poverty line Ultra poverty line Relative price index Metropolitan 50.18 129 .19 75.36 1.000 Lower urban 45.94 101 .72 67.52 0.787 Lower rural 44.29 85 .38 64.71 0.661 Upper urban 45.19 67.51 0.785 Upper rural 40.36 53.37 0.641 101.36 82.81 Notes: Poverty lines are monthly, per capita figures in Egyptian pounds. The Metropolitan poverty line is used as a base line to create the relative price index, which is simply the ratio of each region's reference poverty line to the base line.
22. Example of Poverty Gap Calculation Income of4 individuals in a sample: 1,2,3,4 Poverty line = Z = 3; n=4 PG = [(3-1)/3 + (3-2)/3]/4 = [(2/3) + (1/3)]/4 = [(3/3)/4] = ¼ or 0.25 Poverty gap index does not capture differences in severity of poverty.
