Box 1: Technical notes

  • Normal rounding rules apply where the end digit is less than five. In accordance with the Department of Finance and Administration guidelines, where the end digit equals five, the numbers are rounded up to the next digit. Totals and percentages are calculated on unrounded totals. Columns may not add due to rounding.

  • This paper shows detail of total official development assistance (ODA) including expenditure by other departments that is classifiable as ODA.

  • Where real figures are presented the non-farm GDP deflator has been used.

  • Unless otherwise indicated, all financial information presented in this document represents the net cost to the Commonwealth; the figures are exclusive of any GST which may be payable by the Commonwealth and which is recoverable as an input tax credit.

  • All amounts are in Australian dollars ($A) unless otherwise indicated.

  • Information on historical data is in the Statistical Annex.

  • "Current prices" express values in terms of the prices in the year of expenditure. "Constant prices" express values adjusted for inflation, in terms of the process of a chosen base year, usually the financial year 1999-2000 in this publication. A "real" increase or decrease refers to the change in figures adjusted for inflation (ie based on constant prices). A "nominal" increase or decrease refers to the face value change between figures that have not been adjusted for inflation (ie based on current prices).

  • Where not stated the source of data is AusAID.
