Notes
To preserve the weighted mean, the cases which exceed the threshold for the top-coded variable have a substituted value which is the weighted average value of all cases exceeding the threshold. This is always a value greater than the threshold. See the HILDA User Manual and HILDA Technical Paper 1/14 for details on the derivation of this variable.
