betapareto {VaRES}

Beta Pareto distribution

Description

Computes the pdf, cdf, value at risk and expected shortfall for the beta Pareto distribution due to Akinsete et al. (2008) given by

\begin{array}{ll} &\displaystyle f (x) = \frac {a K^{ad} x^{-ad - 1}}{B (c, d)} \left[ 1 - \left( \frac {K}{x} \right)^a \right]^{c - 1}, \\ &\displaystyle F (x) = I_{1 - \left( \frac {K}{x} \right)^a} (c, d), \\ &\displaystyle {\rm VaR}_p (X) = K \left[ 1 - I_p^{-1} (c, d) \right]^{-1 / a}, \\ &\displaystyle {\rm ES}_p (X) = \frac {K}{p} \int_0^p \left[ 1 - I_v^{-1} (c, d) \right]^{-1 / a} dv \end{array}

for x \geq K, 0 < p < 1, K > 0, the scale parameter, a > 0, the first shape parameter, c > 0, the second shape parameter, and d > 0, the third shape parameter.

Usage

dbetapareto(x, K=1, a=1, c=1, d=1, log=FALSE)
pbetapareto(x, K=1, a=1, c=1, d=1, log.p=FALSE, lower.tail=TRUE)
varbetapareto(p, K=1, a=1, c=1, d=1, log.p=FALSE, lower.tail=TRUE)
esbetapareto(p, K=1, a=1, c=1, d=1)

Arguments

x

scaler or vector of values at which the pdf or cdf needs to be computed

p

scaler or vector of values at which the value at risk or expected shortfall needs to be computed

K

the value of the scale parameter, must be positive, the default is 1

a

the value of the first shape parameter, must be positive, the default is 1

c

the value of the second shape parameter, must be positive, the default is 1

d

the value of the third shape parameter, must be positive, the default is 1

log

if TRUE then log(pdf) are returned

log.p

if TRUE then log(cdf) are returned and quantiles are computed for exp(p)

lower.tail

if FALSE then 1-cdf are returned and quantiles are computed for 1-p

Value

An object of the same length as x, giving the pdf or cdf values computed at x or an object of the same length as p, giving the values at risk or expected shortfall computed at p.
