摘要
There are several functional forms for estimating Lorenz curves from grouped data. Based on studies of the Spanish distribution of income, we propose a new functional form which provides very good fits. Our specification contains the Pareto Lorenz curve as a particular case, and allows one to compute easily, with the provided formulae, the Gini, Kakwani, and Chakravarty Inequality Indexes.
