Note: The figures are for the latest year for which data were available during each time period.
[a] The values for Bolivia, Venezuela and (to a lesser degree) Colombia appear overestimated, while those for Peru and (to a lesser degree) Brazil appear underestimated owing to the selection of 1985 as the base year.
[b] Underestimated owing to limited institutional coverage.
[c] Unweighted averages. Excludes Paraguay, owing to the change in institutional coverage in 1988.
[d] Housing expenditures in Mexico are classified as urban development.
[e] Health per capita expenditures for 1980-81 for Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Costa Rica and Ecuador include health care expenditures channeled through the social security system. For Bolivia and Mexico, this amount includes social security.
