Market incomes include income from wages and salaries, self-employment income, capital income and private pensions received by household members and tend to be the most unequally distributed of these three household living standard concepts. Disposable incomes are often less unequally distributed than market incomes because they take into account cash transfers, public pensions and other benefits paid to the household, less the taxes paid by the household. Consumption expenditure may be even more equally distributed, since it generally reflects disposable income less household savings to account for consumption smoothing.
