Abstract
Pareto distributions are used extensively in modelling income distributions. Estimation of parameters is revisited in two-parameter Pareto distributions. The method of quantile estimates using the elemental estimates and the method of product spacings are applied to the two-parameter Pareto distributions. A comparative study between the maximum likelihood method, the unbiased estimates which are functions of the maximum likelihood method, the minimum mean squared error method, the method of moments, the method of quantile estimation, the method of quantile estimation using the elemental estimates and the method of product spacings is presented.
