calc_growthConcCoef_fromQuantile: Computes the Concentration Coefficient for the income growth...

In antrologos/inequalityTools: Tools for analizing income inequality

Description

Computes the Concentration Coefficient for the income growth between two periods using Quantile Functions as input

Usage

calc_growthConcCoef_fromQuantile(
  qf0,
  qf1,
  correct_for_negativeAppropriation = F,
  gridIntegration = NULL
)

Arguments

qf0	A quantile function of the income distribution at time 0
qf1	A quantile function of the income distribution 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)
