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%))
- 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
- Note: These initializations should probably be moved to health and education
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%))
