Abstract	The paper deals with the net-transfer calculation and the data presents empirical evidence for the distribution of children from various income brackets in the German higher education system. It builds a net transfer calculation on this analysis in order to ascertain the net incidence (the distribution of the benefits - expenditure incidence, the distribution of the tax burden - revenue incidence) followed by further extensions including the distributional impact of a partial cut of the subsidies. Additionally, there is investigated how various kinds of benefits from public higher education affect the income distribution within households with children enrolled in higher education. To judge the statistical inference, bias corrected and accelerated confidence intervals (BCa) via bootstrapping are used. The main goal of this procedure is to point out which kind of benefit significantly affects the income distribution within the subgroup that consists only of net-gainer. The main goal of the paper is to assess this argument critically for West-Germany, using cross section data for the year 1997. (HoF/text adopted).
