bunch_count

[Andreas Myhre]

Hi, I was wondering if any of you have used this program - used to estimate bunching at kink points in the tax system (written by Tore Olsen ). This program can be downloaded from http://www.rajchetty.com/utilities/

I installed this program, but I keep getting the error message "Bunchpoint *number* does not exist as an income group in the data". But this number does indeed exist in my data. Everything else seems to work fine.

Any of you used this program and have faced the same issue, or know what the issue may be?

Thank you!

Hi Andreas Myhre ! I'm writing my thesis using the bunch_count command of Quetty et al. (2011). Have you managed to run your code entirely? Would you agree to share with me your do-file? It would help me because I don't have managed to install the bunch_count using the files given by Quetty...
