[36100586] Distributions of household economic accounts, wealth, Canada, regions and provinces, annual, inactive

The income quintiles refer to the quintiles estimated at the Canada level and not at the provincial/territorial level. The Income quintiles are assigned based on the equalized household disposable income. This takes into account differences in household size and composition. The Oxford-modified equivalence scale is used; it assigns a value of 1 to the first adult, 0.5 to each additional person aged 14 and over, and 0.3 for all children under 14. Age groups refer to the age group of the major income earner. Life insurance and pensions include the value of all life insurance and employer pension plans, termination basis. Excludes public plans administered or sponsored by governments: Old Age Security (OAS) including the Guaranteed Income Supplement (GIS) and the Spouse's Allowance (SPA), as well as the Canada and Quebec Pension Plans (CPP/QPP). Other financial assets include total currency and deposits, Canadian short-term paper, Canadian bonds and debentures, foreign investments in paper and bonds, mortgages, equity and investment funds, and other receivables. Other non-financial assets include consumer durables, machinery and equipment, and intellectual property products. Excludes accumulation of value of collectibles including coins, stamps and art work. Other liabilities include major credit cards and retail store cards, gasoline station cards, etc., vehicle loans, lines of credit, student loans, other loans from financial institutions and other money owed. The sum of the values for net worth and its components by province and region is less than the total for Canada as they exclude the territories. The coefficients of variation from Statistics Canada's Survey of Financial Security for 2012 and 2016, which serve as indicators of the accuracy of these estimates for net worth and its components, are available in the appendix to Distributions of Household Economic Accounts, estimates of asset, liability and net worth distributions, 2010 to 2019, technical methodology and quality report for the March 2020 release. Distribution of value" is the share of a wealth component (such as total assets) attributable to the various household characteristics (such as lowest income quintile)."
