Abstract

In the European Commision Eurostat document Doc. IPSE/65/04/EN page 11, the "at-risk-of-poverty rate" (ARPR) is defined as a percent of population with income smaller than 60% of population median. Zieliński (2008, A nonparametric confidence interval for At-Risk-of-Poverty-Rate) proposed a distribution-free confidence interval for ARPR. In the paper, an example of application of the constructed confidence interval is shown.
