There's been a fair amount of talk about income inequality in the U.S. Or more to the point, talk about how inequality has been increasing. So has it? And to what extent? Let's take a look at income shares. We can take the income earned by every U.S. resident and add them all up. That's total or aggregate income. Then we can divide households up according to their incomes. Let's think that we put households on a "ladder" according to...

3. The Gini Index Problem How is possible to measure the distribution of income among the inhabitants of a given country One such measure is the Gini index, named after the Italian economist Corrado Gini, who first devised it in 1912. We first rank all households in a country by income and then we compute the percentage of households whose income is at most a given percentage of the country's total income. We define a Lorenz Curve y L(x) on...
