Gini Coefficient Formula
The following formula is used to calculate a Gini coefficient.
G = A / (A+B)
- Where G is the Gini Coefficient
- A is the area between the diagonal and the Lorenz curve
- A+B is the whole area under the diagonal of equality
To calculate the Gini Coefficient, divide the area between the diagonal and the Lorenz curve by the whole area under the diagonal of equality.
Gini Coefficient Definition
