Enhancing wealth distributions within the distributions of household economic accounts using a capitalization of income method / by James Gauthier. : CS13-605/2025-1-2E-PDF

"This report outlines the methodology and experimental results from using a capitalization of income method to enhance the distributions of wealth within the Distributions of Household Economic Accounts (DHEA). This work represents a significant step toward improving the accuracy and detail of wealth distributions in the DHEA by leveraging both survey and tax data on family investment income to estimate more comprehensive representations of financial assets across a broader spectrum of households, including those with high wealth. This enhanced approach allows for a more precise wealth distribution representation across various household characteristics, offering deeper insights into economic inequality in Canada. The findings from this report suggest that wealth inequality, as currently reflected in the DHEA, is likely underestimated. Moving forward, the methodology will be further refined to not only deliver more accurate wealth distributions but also to develop a more detailed, integrated, and up-to-date series of wealth distributions for inclusion within the DHEA. …"--Summary and acknowledgements, page 4.
