Decrease in gross income

Total gross income amounted to NOK 1 071 billion in 2006. This was a decrease of NOK 35 billion, or 3 per cent, from the previous year. The decrease is due to a reduction in dividends received and net entrepreneurial income. Wages increased by NOK 59 billion, or 8 per cent.

From 2006, there were assessed taxes on dividends received for personal tax payers. Previous years this was tax-free. In 2005, dividends received amounted to NOK 99.3 billion, and in 2006 dividends received amounted to NOK 7.4 billion.

Minimum deductions increased by 9 per cent from 2005 to 2006. Deduction for interest paid increased by 20 percent. Average deduction amounted to NOK 76 700 in 2006.

Taxable net property more than doubled

Taxable net property more than doubled from 2005 to 2006. Net property amounted to NOK 404 billion in 2006. The assessed value of property and securities was increased in 2006 and can explain the increase in net property.
