Notes:
Gross household income: Total income from all sources includingfrom Tax Credits, before deductions of income tax and National Insurance.
Net disposable householdincome: Total income after deductionsfor income tax, National Insurance Contributions, council tax, pension contributionsand maintenance payments.
Housing costs: Net disposable income but with rent/mortgagepayments, water charges, structural insurance premiums, ground rent and servicecharges deducted.
Equivalised net disposablehousehold income: “Equivalised”Income is used to allow comparisons of living standards between different householdtypes. Income is adjusted to take into account variations in the size and compositionof the household. This adjustment reflects the fact that a family of several peoplerequires a higher income than a single person in order for both households to enjoya comparable standard of living. The key assumption is that all individuals in thehousehold benefit equally from the combined (equivalised) income of the household.There are distinct equivalence scales used for income before housing costs (BHC)and income after housing costs (AHC).
