Abstract: Tools for the analysis of income distribution are shown through the commands integrated in the module Distributive Analysis Stata Package (DASP) that operate in Stata. DASP commands provide short avenues for estimating and producing graphic material to analyze easily economic inequality. This presentation focuses on the clorenz, cdensity, igini, and digini commands, which are programmed as ado-files; in addition, examples of its application by using microsimulated databases are shown through the Household Income and Expenditure Survey (ENIGH), 2020. The exercises compare the set of syntax with standard calculation Stata language, necessary for the calculation of inequality, Lorenz curves, and kernel density curves, and in parallel, the output is replicated with the DASP commands mentioned.
