Abstract

As the household sector as a whole is very heterogeneous, it is necessary to separate more homogeneous groups within the sector (United Nations et al. "System of National Accounts 1993"19.9). In this paper by sub-sectors of elderly households according to size of income the income and outlay account and the balance sheet account in 1994 and 1999 are estimated on SNA. According to these elderly sub-sector estimates, the inequality of primary income in 1999 spread from 1994, but the inequality of disposable income and adjusted disposable income did not spread so much because the redistribution effect of social security benefits increased. The differential of net worth reduced because land assets decreased. JEL Classification: C81, D31
