This table presents household income and saving from the national accounts broken down by income quintile. It includes primary income, disposable income, adjusted disposable income and saving. Primary income is the income that households receive as a result of their involvement in production. It includes gross operating surplus (in the case of households, imputed income from owning your own house), gross mixed income (profits of the self-employed) and compensation of employees (wages and salaries and employers’ social contributions) as well as net interest, distributed income of corporations (dividends) and rent. Disposable income is the income that households receive after taxes on income and wealth, social contributions and benefits, non-life insurance premiums and claims, and other current transfers like remittances. Adjusted disposable income is derived from disposable income, but also includes the value of social transfers in kind received by households. Saving represents that part of disposable income (adjusted for the change in pension entitlements) that is not spent on final consumption goods and services.

In this table, households are grouped into income quintiles on the basis of their equivalised disposable income, ranked from lowest to highest, i.e., the first quintile represents the 20% households with the lowest equivalised disposable income and the fifth quintile the 20% households with the highest. Equivalisation means that results for each household have been recalculated on the basis of its consumption needs, in order to produce comparable results across households of different size and composition.

Results are presented in national currency and as averages per household and per consumption unit (you can choose these from the ‘Unit of measure’ filter). Results per consumption unit (equivalised income and saving) are obtained by dividing each household’s result by the number of consumption units, reflecting its consumption needs, for example by applying the standard OECD-modified equivalence scale, counting the first adult as 1, any additional people aged 14 and over as 0.5 and all children under 14 as 0.3.

The default view of this table is for a single country (‘Reference area’ filter) and single year (‘Time period’ filter). In cases where countries appear to be greyed-out, data may be available for earlier years, and these can be selected by selecting a different start and end year in the ‘Time period’ filter. Users are recommended to select one country at a time to obtain a comprehensive overview of the distributional results for that country for a given period of time. Alternatively, you may select a specific item from the ‘Transaction’ filter to make cross-country comparisons.

For more information on the (compilation of) these results, please see the webpage on household distributional results .

This collection contains data integrated from the two components of the Consumer Expenditure Survey, the Diary Survey and the quarterly Interview Survey, for the years 1984-1995. The integrated data provide a complete accounting of consumer expenditures and income, which neither component alone is designed to do. For the Diary Survey, consumer units complete a diary of expenses for two consecutive one-week periods. The diary survey is designed to obtain data on frequently purchased items such as food and beverages, housekeeping supplies, etc., that respondents are less likely to recall over longer periods of time. For the Interview Survey, consumer units report information to an interviewer once every three months for five consecutive quarters. This survey is designed to obtain data on expenditures and income that respondents can be expected to recall for a period of three months or longer, such as property or automobile purchases, and those that occur on a regular basis, such as rent, utility bills, and insurance premiums. The standard tables include age of reference person, composition of the consumer unit, size of the consumer unit, number of earners in the consumer unit, income before taxes, occupation, quintiles of income before taxes, housing tenure, race, type of area (urban-rural), and region of residence. There are also cross-tabulated tables that include age by income, consumer unit size by income, region by income before taxes, Metropolitan Statistical Areas by the four census regions, and single persons by age and by income.
