We consider a multidimensional, continuous-time model where the observation process is a diffusion with drift and volatility coefficients being modeled as continuous-time, finite-state Markov chains with a common state process. For the econometric estimation of the states for drift and...

Estimates of UK income inequality trends differ substantially according to whether estimates are based on household survey data (used for official statistics) or tax return data (used in the top incomes literature). We reconcile differences in variable definitions and combine survey and tax...

Inconsistent censoring in the public-use March CPS limits its usefulness in measuring labor earnings trends, as previous approaches for imputing topcoded earnings systematically understate top earnings. Using Pareto estimation methods with less-censored internal data, we create an enhanced...
