May I put banners of affiliate programs and google adsense in the same web site page? Does it have any impact with my earning?

I believe you can do so, at least if you don't try to make the affiliate banners/links look like or imitate the AdSense banners. As to whether or not it'll affect your AdSense earnings that greatly depends on placement and topic of both the AdSense banners and the affiliate links/banners. It does stand to reason that if you place more clickable choices on a page, the frequency with which each one is clicked will go down.. but if you earn money from both sources, then I don't see the problem -- in fact, I'd recommend it. Honestly, what I would probably do is give it a try and see what works for your particular site.
It's always good to spread your shelled protein throughout multiple recepticles.  (Yes, yes, I *do* think i'm clever).

After reading the below prior to signing up for adsense, I decided not to include adsense ads on my affiliate page.
https://www.google.com/adsense/policies
Ad Placement
* Ads may not be placed on pages published specifically for the purpose of showing ads, whether or not the page content is relevant.

I think google would loose a considerable chunk of their affiliates if this was enforce (there is no way to prove why you have a web page up)

I don't see how that statement could be interpeted to mean that affiliate ads and google ads can not share the same page.
I can't really see any situation in which affiliate links (used well) would make up a page "published specifically for the purpose of showing ads". Simply put, *web pages* shouldn't exist for the sole purpose of showing ads. To me, that's just a waste of good space. 
Google's TOS makes sense -- In order to make successful use of mulitple affiliate programs, such programs should be used to compliment a page's content, not BE the page's content.
Hm.

This statement is pretty clear the purpse of a page cannot be to show ads. I have many pages that I put up for the sole purpose of showing ads. I can show you many pages that have the purpose of showing ads. Sure, I give the users some good content in exchange; but I don't show them content and provide them with tools just because I love humanity. I do it for the bottom line, and the way an informational site is going to make money is through ads. Still, google will not reject trafic from these sites. I don't know why google has this text, but I don't think they really inforce it.
Maybe they mean what silv says, they wan't to avoid sites that only show ads, but if they meant this then they did not frase it well.

Heh. I see what you mean, but if they meant it the way you are taking it, then you wouldn't be able to put adsense anywhere. After all, if you take any site that is ad-supported to exist only for the purpose of showing ads, then even if you were exclusively using adsense, you'd be volating this clase. And that'd be silly.

I believe they mean that the page must have content and not be ONLY ads.
