Our merging strategy uses taxpaying classes divided by household types. After a short description of the merging results according to householdtypes and income brackets, we investigate in particular high incomes with a distributional analysis and a decomposition for the self-employed and the employees. We then characterize rich and non rich households by socioeconomic breakdowns. Finally we analyze the full range income distribution comparing the merged Income Tax Statistic EStS/EVS 1995 with the EVS 1993 considering the household structure via equivalence scales. The concluding remarks emphasize the need for an integrated microdatafile for a targeted economic and social policy.",
