INCOME DIFFERENTIATION OF UKRAINIAN POPULATION: TRENDS AND FACTORS

Abstract

The emergence of various forms of ownership, market reforms, profound changes in the economy inevitably led to the differentiation of incomes of Ukrainian citizens, which affected the structure and volume of consumption, the formation of employment, economic and political stability. In this regard, issues related to the study of causes and factors, modeling processes that determine poverty and income inequality of the population of Ukraine become particularly relevant. The article offers a retrospective review of the state, problems and dynamics of the main indicators of income distribution in Ukraine. The current trends of the income structure, differentiation of living standards of the population, inflation indices for various services were studied. The Gini coefficients of Ukraine and some other countries were considered, and the Lorentz curves for six years were constructed to obtain a quantitative estimate of the total differentiation of the income level of the Ukrainian population. The dynamics of the average salary in types of economic activity are determined. The economic, social and organizational factors that are objective reasons for the excessive differentiation of incomes of the population have been established. The forecast of the average salary of the Ukrainian population for twelve months has been obtained on the basis of time series simulation. It is shown that with the invariance of the existing factors affecting average salary and the interrelationship between them during the forecast period, it is expected that the Ukrainian population’s average salary will increase, but at a slower pace than in previous periods. The results of the long-term analysis of the dynamics of population’s incomes have made it possible to conclude that in the conditions of the socio-economic instability of the economy there is a need to improve the state regulation of the population’s income in Ukraine. The ways that can lead to a reduction in the differentiation of the population’s income were proposed.
