Student: Konovalova Alena

Educational Programme: Economics (Bachelor)

Year of Graduation: 2016

The rupture of the income between generations – this subject is important for research as it signals about the level of mobility and equality in society. I took the period which, in my opinion, is most optimum in the work: age groups of workers since 20-30 years, since 30-40 years, since 40-50 years and since 50-60 years. In the first part of the work I considered major factors which affected a gap in the income. In the second part by means of the STATA program in practice by means of independent statistical research the income of individuals in age groups and influence of factors on change of a salary is considered. By results of research, conclusions were drawn on that as well as in what degree the taken factors influence our dependent variable.
