Spending for the year
What the Uruguayan state bought in 2014
In 2014 public procurement totalled $ 21.5 billion, up 35.7% on 2013 in current pesos. Inflation accounts for $ 1.3 billion of that: net of it, spending rose 27.3% in real terms. A single contract is 84.6% of the real change: ACTUALIZACION DE VERSION DE SOFTWARE (Banco de la República del Uruguay → NORTH DATA URUGUAY S A, $ 3.7 billion). Across comparable article codes (44% of the year), the change splits into $ -1 billion from unit prices and $ 3.2 billion from quantities — quantity dominates.
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.
