Following is a response from Senior DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:

Table 7.13 in the Kenya 2014 final report is like table 6.5, in that it has a spurious "missing" category that you will not find in other final reports. Somehow, during data processing, someone apparently re-classified about 30 cases that were Not Applicable (NA) on v362 as "missing". Frankly, I think it would be a waste of your time to try to find out how or why they made this mistake. I have looked into all the variables that went into the construction of this table. None of them have any "missing" codes or cases. What you did seems to me to be correct.
