In order to visualize the presentation of information on the degree of uneven distribution of the average per capita money and total expenditures of rural personal peasant farms in the Volyn region of Ukraine, we constructed the Lorentz curve, which represents the cumulative distribution of population and the corresponding expenditures. The study proved, that the functioning of the private economy is a significant factor for the smoothing of income unevenness and social polarization of the rural population.
