For the household sector, gross disposable income is the amount of money that all of the individuals in the household sector have available for spending or saving after income distribution measures (for example, taxes, social contributions and benefits) have taken effect. For the non-financial corporate sector gross disposable income is essentially akin to gross operating surplus before dividends or interest is paid.
