Abstract

This paper endeavours to present a simple model to explain the frequency distribution of income by adding birth and death considerations to the more usual random shock system type of model. The form of this model turns out to be a Gram-Charlier distribution subject to a linear logarithmic transformation, the parameters of which are meaningful and significant. A tentative method of fitting such curves is suggested and the values of the parameters discussed.
