The Graduation of Income Distributions
Econometrica, 1961A FUNCTION representing the distribution of income in a society can serve a number of purposes. It may be used to smooth out irregularities in the observed income distribution caused by the misreporting of income. In this role it is similar to the graduation formulae used in demographic work to correct an age distribution distorted by mistatements of ...

Cambridge Journal of Economics, 1988
This is a brief assessment of Piero Sraffa's treatment of income distribution. On the basis of Sraffa's texts, the author rejects two opposite and extreme views, claiming respectively no concern for the problem of income distribution, and a very specific income distribution theory.

On the Distribution of Personal Incomes
The Review of Economic Studies, 1972The factors determining the distribution of personal incomes are both numerous and interrelated. However it is common, even in complicated problems, to discover that the basic relationship between the fundamental factors are simple. In the belief that an understanding of the theory of income distribution at its simplest level is a pre-requisite for ...

VERTICAL DIFFERENTIATION AND THE DISTRIBUTION OF INCOME
Bulletin of Economic Research, 2006The paper analyses the effects of income concentration on the behaviour of a duopoly with vertical product differentiation and uncovered market. By using a trapezoid distribution, we solve explicitly for market equilibrium as a function of a mean preserving spread of the income distribution. We show that overall more concentrated incomes imply stronger

POLARIZATION ORDERINGS OF INCOME DISTRIBUTIONS
Review of Income and Wealth, 2010This paper considers an intermediate notion of polarization which is defined as a convex mix of relative and absolute concepts of polarization. While absolute polarization indices remain unchanged under equal absolute augmentation in all incomes, relative indices do not change under equiproportionate variations in all incomes.

AbstractPareto observed a certain regularity in the distribution of incomes in various countries and over time. Multiple theories have been advanced to explain income distribution among individuals and households based on these regularities. Many authors explained the generation of income distributions with the help of stochastic processes.

Remittances and Income Distribution
Journal of Economic Studies, 1987The objective of this paper is to examine the affect of foreign remittances on the distribution of incomes in the home country. As noted recently by Stark, Taylor and Yitzhaki (1986), there are few works which deal with the distributional impact of revenues from abroad. This is probably due to the lack of adequate data, since the available data in most

Income-Share Elasticity and the Size Distribution of Income
International Economic Review, 1986The paper introduces the notion of income-share elasticity as the limit of the share of total income earned by individuals with incomes in the interval \([x,x+n]\) when \(n\to o\). We demonstrate that there is a one to one correspondence between density functions and income-share elasticities.
