Abstract
Subject of Study. An alternative approach to creation of distribution of the population of Russia on the level of cash incomes on the basis of data of selective inspection is considered. Purpose. A main objective of this article is determining a form of a curve of income distribution in Russia.
Main Problem and Ways of Its Solving. On the basis of data of the Russian monitoring of an economic situation and health of the population of Higher School of Economics National Research University (RLMS-HSE) of 2014 the author offers to use the lognormal distribution law applied in official statistics for approximation of low and average earnings, and Pareto distribution for a site of the high income as the power function approximates «the right tail» of distribution better.
Results. It has been shown that the technique applied in the Russian official statistics does not consider specifics of distribution of the high income and it can be improved by means of the Paretolognormal model.
Practical Use the Results. The results received in article can be used for the solution of actual tasks of the state social policy.
Keywords:
personal income distribution, inequality, Lognormal function, Pareto tail
