In antrologos/inequalityTools: Tools for analizing income inequality

Description

Computes the Concentration Coefficient for the income growth between two periods

Usage

calc_growthConcCoef(
  x0,
  x1,
  w0 = NULL,
  w1 = NULL,
  correct_for_negativeAppropriation = F,
  gridIntegration = NULL
)

Arguments

x0	A vector of incomes at time 0
x1	A vector of incomes at time 1
w0	(optional) A vector of sample weights at time 0
w1	(optional) A vector of sample weights at time 1
correct_for_negativeAppropriation	A logical value. If TRUE, applies a alternative method that corrects for negative values in the Growth Concentration Curve. Default to FALSE.
gridIntegration	(optional) A grid of class 'NIGrid' for multivariate numerical integration (mvQuad package)

Value

Returns the Growth Concentration Coefficient (numeric value)
