Data are on a national income accounts basis. The structural budget position is defined as the actual budget deficit (or surplus) less the effects of cyclical deviations of output from potential output. Because of the margin of uncertainty that attaches to estimates of cyclical gaps and to tax and expenditure elasticities with respect to national income, indicators of structural budget positions should be interpreted as broad orders of magnitude. Source: Ministry of Finance Latest actual data: 2010 Notes: Bulgaria: the forecast is largely based on constant policies for 2011 (ie their 2011 budget). For 2012-13 the assumptions about the wage bill, and subsidies are a hybrid of the convergence plan, announced policies, and the team?s judgment. GFS Manual used: Historical data on expenses, interest income and net acquisition of nonfinancial assets provided by the authorities are not fully consistent with the presentation of the 2010 budget and therefore do not allow to make consistent projections at this stage.
