Estimate poverty gap (FGT1)

Usage

pipgd_pov_gap(
  params = NULL,
  welfare = NULL,
  weight = NULL,
  mean = 1,
  times_mean = 1,
  popshare = NULL,
  povline = ifelse(is.null(popshare), mean * times_mean, NA_real_),
  format = c("dt", "list", "atomic"),
  lorenz = NULL,
  complete = getOption("pipster.return_complete")
)

Arguments

params

list of parameters from pipgd_validate_lorenz()

welfare

numeric vector of cumulative share of welfare (income/consumption)

weight

numeric vector of cumulative share of the population

mean

numeric scalar of distribution mean. Default is 1

times_mean

numeric factor that multiplies the mean to create a relative poverty line. Default is 1

popshare

numeric: range (0,1). Share of population. Provide share of population instead of poverty line

povline

numeric: value of poverty line. Default is the mean value

format

character: either "dt" for data.table, "list" or "atomic" for a single numeric vector, whose names are corresponding selected Lorenz for each value. Default is "dt"

lorenz

character or NULL. Lorenz curve selected. It could be "lq" for Lorenz Quadratic or "lb" for Lorenz Beta

complete

logical: If TRUE, returns a list a cumulative returns from previously used get_gd functions. Default is FALSE

Value

Returns a data.table and data.frame object with three variables: povline, pov_gap, and lorenz. Check format argument to change the output format. If complete = TRUE, it returns a pipgd_params object with additional details and intermediate calculations.

Examples

# Example 1: Basic usage with specified mean and poverty line
pipgd_pov_gap(welfare = pip_gd$L,
              weight  = pip_gd$P,
              mean    = 109.90,
              povline = 89,
              complete = FALSE)

#>      <num>     <num> <char>
#> 1:      89 0.1273534     lb

# Example 2: Multiple poverty lines, returning data.table
pipgd_pov_gap(welfare = pip_gd$L,
              weight  = pip_gd$P,
              povline = c(0.5, 1, 2, 3),

# Example 3: Multiple poverty lines, returning list format

              povline = c(0.5, 1, 2, 3),
