In the cs.index.zip file we provide an R script which let us plot the conditioned Gini (or skewness) coefficient used in the working paper entitled "On conditional skewness with applications in environmental data" submitted to Environmental and Ecological Statistics. On the other hand, the ReadMe.pdf explains how to use the cs.index.R script.

The Gini index is the most common method for estimating the level of income inequality in countries. In this paper we suggest a simple modification that takes into account the moderating effect of in-kind government benefits. Unlike other studies that use micro level data that is rarely available for many countries or over a period of time, the proposed modified Gini index could be calculated using just the regularly available data for each country. Such data includes the original Gini coefficient, government consumption expenditures, GDP and total tax revenue as a percentage of GDP. This modified version of the Gini index allows us to calculate the level of inequality more precisely, and make better comparisons between countries and over time.
