Definition: Use of income account
ESA 1995
For the institutional sectors with final consumption, the use of income account shows how disposable income (or adjusted disposable income) is divided between final consumption expenditure (or actual final consumption) and saving.
In the system, only government, NPISHs and households have final consumption. In addition, the use of income account includes, for households and for pension funds, an adjustment item (Adjustment for the change in the net equity of households in pension funds reserves) which relates to the way that transactions between households and pension funds are recorded.
