Abstract

This paper updates and refines the estimates of age-earnings profiles provided in William E. Even and David A. Macpherson (2018). Relative to the earlier work, the estimates provided here use more recent data, improve the controls for the impact of the labor market on earnings, and provide both sex-specific and sex-neutral estimates of age-earnings profiles by education.
