Following is a response from Senior DHS Specialist, Kerry MacQuarrie:

Please see page 15-6 of the Guide to DHS Statistics ( https://dhsprogram.com/pubs/pdf/DHSG1/Guide_to_DHS_Statistic s_DHS-7_v2.pdf) for your first question. It indicates how to construct this measure. All men who receive earnings, whether in cash or in-kind, are included in the denominator.

The question for variable v743b is asked of all women who are married/in-union. Any missings (".") on this variable are the result of item non-response. The Uganda survey final reports indicate that this is 0.3% of in-union women in 2006 and 0.1% in 2011.

Good luck with your analysis.
