Examples

To provide a general example of aplication of ftarifa, here we first create a ficticious database of consumption of drinking water. This dataset contains 10,000 obervations of consumption divided in six categories, "Social", "Subsidized domestic", "Non-subsidized domestic", "Comercial", "Industrial" and "State". Each of these categories has specific tariff which applie. These are presented in the following table:

clear 
set obs 10000
gen volfac = round(rgamma(1, 100), .01)
sort volfac
gen random_norm = normal(invnorm(runiform()))
egen temp = xtile(random_norm), nq(6)
gen codcat = 100 + temp
drop random_norm temp

gen nomcat = ""
replace nomcat = "SOCIAL" if codcat == 101
replace nomcat = "DOMÉSTICO BENEFICIARIO" if codcat == 102
replace nomcat = "DOMÉSTICO NO BENEFICIARIO" if codcat == 103
replace nomcat = "COMERCIAL Y OTROS" if codcat == 104
replace nomcat = "INDUSTRIAL" if codcat == 105
replace nomcat = "ESTATAL" if codcat == 106 

tostring codcat, replace 

gen categoria = .
replace categoria = 1 if nomcat == "SOCIAL"
replace categoria = 2 if nomcat == "DOMÉSTICO BENEFICIARIO"
replace categoria = 3 if nomcat == "DOMÉSTICO NO BENEFICIARIO"
replace categoria = 4 if nomcat == "COMERCIAL Y OTROS"
replace categoria = 5 if nomcat == "INDUSTRIAL"
replace categoria = 6 if nomcat == "ESTATAL"

//Teniendo las variables 'volfac' y 'categoria' definidas

//APLICAMOS LA FORMULA PARA CALCULAR TARIFAS PARA SEDAPAR
ftarifa volfac, tarifa1(1.7) quiebre1() tarifa2(1.7 1.9 2.9 7.3) quiebre2(10 20 50) tarifa3(2 2.9 7.3) quiebre3(20 50) tarifa4(1000) quiebre4(7.3 7.9) tarifa5(7.9) quiebre5() tarifa6(7.9) quiebre6()generate(imagua) categoria(categoria)
