Abstract

The aim of this paper is to investigate the roles of the parameters in the inequality-analysis framework for the recently introduced Zenga distribution. The main results are summarized in two different theo- rems, which state that the two shape parameters of such distribution are inequality indicators. The inequality-evaluating tools considered are Lorenz curve with the related Gini concentration ratio and Zenga inequality curve with the related inequality index I
