In economic research inequality measures based on ratios of quantiles are frequently applied to the analysis of income distributions. In the paper, we construct a confidence interval for such measures under the Dagum distribution which has been widely assumed as a model for income distributions in empirical analyses Its properties are investigated on the basis of computer simulations. The constructed confidence interval is applied to the analysis of inequality income in Poland in 2015.
