Measuring inequality using censored data: a multiple imputation approach
Jenkins, Stephen P.; Burkhauser, Richard V.; Feng, … - 2009
Population Survey (CPS) internal data, we find few statistically significant differences in income inequality for pairs of years … between 1995 and 2004. We also show that using CPS public use data with cell mean imputations may lead to incorrect inferences …

The top tail of the wealth distribution in Germany, France, Spain, and Greece
Bach, Stefan; Thiemann, Andreas; Zucco, Aline - 2015
We analyze the top tail of the wealth distribution in Germany, France, Spain, and Greece based on the Household Finance and Consumption Survey (HFCS). Since top wealth is likely to be underrepresented in household surveys we integrate the big fortunes from rich lists, estimate a Pareto...

Correcting wealth survey data for the missing rich : the case of Austria
Eckerstorfer, Paul; Halak, Johannes; Kapeller, Jakob; … - 2014
It is a well-known criticism that due to its exponential distribution, survey data on wealth is hardly reliable when it comes to analyzing the richest parts of society. This paper addresses this criticism using Austrian data from the Household Finance and Consumption Survey (HFCS). In doing so...

Pareto models, top incomes, and recent trends in UK income inequality
Jenkins, Stephen - 2016 - Revised version: 1 August 2016
I determine UK income inequality levels and trends by combining inequality estimates from tax return data (for the "rich") and household survey data (for the "non-rich"), taking advantage of the better coverage of top incomes in tax return data (which I demonstrate) and creating income variables...
