Disposable income is the income concept used for comparison.
The incomes of those in the bottom two deciles were increased proportionately by 3 percent (20 percent of the informal economy, which was assumed to be 15 percent of total disposable income).
We also calculated the percentile points of the distribution (incomes at the 10th and 90th percentiles as a percentage of median income) and the decile ratio (the ratio of the 90th to the 10th percentile income) (Table 13-3).

 South-Western EconData -- Real Per-Capita Disposable Personal Income
Disposable personal income is the portion of personal income that is left after personal taxes are subtracted, and thus is the amount of personal income available to people for consumption spending and saving.
Thus personal income is the sum of wage and salary disbursements, other labor income, proprietor's income (rental income), dividend and interest income, and transfer payments to individuals (welfare, unemployment insurance, etc).
The greater percentage of real per-capita income in most countries is used for consumption spending rather than saving, with the percentage varying by culture and other factors.

 Household Debt Service and Financial Obligations Ratios
The household debt service ratio is the ratio of household debt payments to disposable income.
To create the measure, payments are calculated separately for revolving debt and for each type of closed-end debt, and the sum of these payments is divided by disposable personal income as reported in the National Income and Product Accounts.

 Is There Such a Thing as an Absolute Poverty Line Over Time? Evidence from the United States, Britain, Canada, and ...
Another significant source of evidence about the income elasticity of the poverty line--although it has generally been neglected in previous income elasticity literature--is the common knowledge of experts on poverty lines, budgets, and living standards, as documented in quotations from their writings.
The "get-along" amount showed a small tendency to drop as a percentage of median family income [which would be consistent with Kilpatrick's results], but it remained roughly constant as a percentage of "per family disposable personal income" (a measure which Rainwater constructed as four times per capita disposable income).
In the United States, for instance, the estimate of the normal annual income required to maintain a standard of health and decency for a family of five has jumped from $600 at the beginning of the twentieth century to nearly $2000 at the end of the third decade [of the twentieth century].

 Economic Report of the President (1997) VIA UM-ST. LOUIS
Between 1993 and 1994, households with adjusted gross incomes of $100,000 or more saw those incomes increase by an average of 9.0 percent while their income tax liability increased by 8.9 percent.
Consumer fundamentals remain positive: consumer confidence is high, income growth is healthy (real disposable personal income expanded at a better than 3 percent rate over the four quarters ending in the third quarter of 1996), and the growth in household liabilities has been offset by rapid growth of assets.
One cost they cite is that taxation of nominal interest income and nominal capital gains distorts saving and investment decisions in an inflationary environment, although in some cases these distortions may offset others elsewhere in the tax system.

The amount that you are able borrow will usually depend on two things - your annual disposable income and the amount that your chosen lender is prepared to lend in relation to that income.
As a rule of thumb most lenders will currently lend a maximum of 3.25 times the first income plus one times the second income.
The calculator has been pre-set with the multiples shown above but if you have found a lender who is prepared to advance more than this then you may change the income multiple boxes to obtain the figure available.

Driven by corporate profits, retail sales, and consumer disposable income, the advertising industry could be poised for successive years of growth, peaking in 2003, and then declining slightly every year through 2006.

It may be small, but at least it's a positive figure for the struggling advertising industry where a report from Global Insight, Inc. finds that the U.S. ad market should experience a 6 percent increase in 2003.
