The thesis considers the application of maximum entropy principle in estimating the income distribution when there is data in grouped format introduced by Wu (2003b) , and studies the behavior of the different forms of maximum entropy function and their relation with the conventional distributions , also it evaluates the income inequality using the generalized entropy measures of inequality
