Disposable income

Definition

The disposable income of a household includes the income from its activity, the income from its assets, the transfers from other households, and social benefits (including retirement pensions and unemployment benefits), net of direct tax. Four direct taxes are generally taken into account: income tax, accommodation tax, the general social contribution (CSG) and the social debt repayment contribution (CRDS).
