Initializations
Defense
Initialize defense expenditures using SeriesGovtMil%GDPSIPRI. If null, then use SeriesGovtMil%GDP.
If null estimate using GDPPCP: TbName$ = "GDP/Capita (PPP) Versus Govt Exp Mil as % of GDP (" & CStr(BaseYear) & ") - linear"
This equation is using: GDP/Capita (PPP) Versus Govt Exp Mil as % of GDP (2000) - linear
Health
Initialize public health expenditures using SeriesGovtHl%GDP.
If null estimate using GDPPCP: TbName$ = "GDP/Capita (PPP) Versus Govt Exp Hlth as % of GDP (" & CStr(BaseYear) & ") - log"
This equation is using: GDP/Capita (PPP) Versus Govt Exp Hlth as % of GDP (2000) - log
Initialize private health expenditures using SeriesHealthExpPriv%Tot. If no data, but there is data on total health expenditures (SeriesHealthExpTot%GDP) then set private as the difference between total and public.
If no data on total health expenditure then estimate private using:
'Estimate Private
Call AnalFunc("Private Health Expenditures % of GDP (2012)", _
Array(CGDPPCP(ICount%), CEDYRSAGE25T(ICount%)), cVal, _
Array("GDP2005PCPPP(MOSTRECENT)/ 1000 (Log)", "EdYearsAge25(MOSTRECENT) (Linear)"))
If no data on total expenditures, then it is the sum of private and public.
Education
Initialize public spending on education using SeriesGovtEdPub%GDP. If null then use:
Call XYTABL("GDP/Capita (PPP) Versus Govt Exp Educ as % of GDP (2002) - log", _
Amin(40, CGDPPCP(ICount%)), GExpEd(ICount%))
To fill holes: "GDP/Capita (PPP) Versus Govt Exp Educ as % of GDP (2002) - log"
Bound as 1.5% as a minimum. Set Uzbekistan to 3%.
R & D
Initialize public R&D spending using SeriesR&DGovt%GDP (GExpRandD) and SeriesR&D%GDPWDI (ExpRandDTot).
If ExpRandDTot is null then estimate using: TbName$ = "GDP/Capita (PPP) Versus R&D Total as % of GNI (" & CStr(BaseYear) & ") - linear"
This equation is using: GDP/Capita (PPP) Versus R&D Total as % of GNI (2000) - linear
If GExpRandD is null then estimate using: TbName$ = "GDP/Capita (PPP) Versus Govt Exp R&D as % of GNP (" & CStr(BaseYear) & ") - linear"
This equation is using: GDP/Capita (PPP) Versus Govt Exp R&D as % of GNP (2000) - linear
Initialize central government health expenditures (GExpHlCen) using SeriesGovtCalcHealthCen%GDP
Initialize total government health expenditures (GExpHlTot) using SeriesGovtCalcHealthTot%GDP
Initialize central government education expenditures (GExpEdCen) using SeriesGovtCalcEdCen%GDP
Initialize total government education expenditures (GExpEdTot) using SeriesGovtCalcEdTot%GDP
Infrastructure
'-- Infrastructure Expenditure : Build up from components calculated in DataInfra: for historical and regular base--
'switch to turn infrastructure finance on and off
Note: default setting of infrastructure finance is on (1) - changing this to off (0) in global parameters (IFs.mdb) means that infrastructure spending is initialized at zero.
If infrastructure finance is on (default) then sum up new construction and maintenance from all sub-types of infrastructure. Cap at 10% of GDP.
InfraOther
'non-core or 'other' infrastructure as a % of GDP - using function estimated by DSR
GExpInfraOther(ICount%) = 1.8162 + 0.061 * Log(CGDPPCP(ICount%))
