Notes:               Gini index measures the extent to which the distribution of income or
                     consumption expenditure among individuals or households within an
                     economy deviates from a perfectly equal distribution. A Lorenz curve
                     plots the cumulative percentages of total income received against the
                     cumulative number of recipients, starting with the poorest individual
                     or household. The Gini index measures the area between the Lorenz
                     curve and a hypothetical line of absolute equality, expressed as a
                     percentage of the maximum area under the line. Thus a Gini index of 0
                     represents perfect equality, while an index of 100 implies perfect
                     inequality.
