The Department of National Accounts of SSC told Turan, that the payment of income tax, social security contributions and other mandatory and voluntary payments to the population was 300 million manat. Thus, at the disposal of the population left 2 bn AZN. The bulk of these funds were designed to meet consumer needs.
Cost of living for 2013 was estimated by Parliament to be 116 manats. Independent public bodies estimate the figure at around 200 manats.
