Spending for the year
What the Uruguayan state bought in 2005
In 2005 public procurement totalled $ 21.1 billion, up 11.6% on 2004 in current pesos. Inflation accounts for $ 736.7 million of that: net of it, spending rose 7.7% in real terms. A single contract is worth 4.3 times the whole year's real change: ZOCALO CONFORMADO PARA PISO VINILICO (Comando General de la Armada → COMANDO GRAL. DE LA ARMADA, $ 6.3 billion).
Every amount is converted at its own month's exchange rate and deflated by the BCU Unidad Indexada. The series measures purchasing published as open data, not the national budget.
From one year to the next
Each year's change, split into parts that add up exactly. The previous year is first re-priced to this year's price level; what remains is real change, and that is split between bodies entering or leaving the record and those present in both years.
