Methodological note

Gross Disposable Household Income (GDHI) is the macromagnitude thatmeasures the disposable income of the residents of a territory foruse in consumption or savings. This income does not only depend onthe income of families that is directly associated to payment for theircontribution to productive activity (payment of wage earners and gross operating surplus),but is also influenced by Public Administration activity through taxes and social benefits.

The households sector includes individuals or groups of individuals, both as consumersand, when applicable, as entrepreneurs who produce financial or non-financial market goodsor services (market producers), provided that, in the latter case, the correspondingactivities are not carried out by separate entities treated as quasi corporations.It also includes individuals or groups of individuals who produce non-financial goodsand services exclusively for their own end use.

The main sources of households' income are payment of salaried workers,gross operating surplus and social benefits. In turn, the main uses of this incomeare social payments and tax on income.

The GDHI series published by Idescat is coherent with estimates of the householdincome accounts of the Regional Accounting for Spain, 2019 Benchmark revision, published by the National Statistical Institute (INE).
