The purpose of this exploratory descriptive study was to evaluate the participation of state governments (federation units) in the financing of sports and leisure public policies from 2002 to 2016. In order to better understand the regional effect of investment, the information was cut by region. Two central hypotheses were tested, the concentrator effect and the equity effect. The database was formed from the consolidated expenditure record registered with the National Treasury in the Accounting and Tax Information System of the Brazilian Public Sector - Siconfi. In order to ensure the comparability of tax information, the values were deflated by the Consumer Price Index. Although there are no constraints at the level of the federation pressing the Federation Units to be active with regard to the sports agenda, these Units have been shown to be responsive to it. The overall result produces different effects between macro-regions, regions and Federation Units, concentrating the resources, or distributing them more evenly.

The Consumer Price Index is widely used as a basis for adjusting money incomes in both the private and the public sector. Problems in measuring the cost of owner-occupied housing have contributed to serious deficiences in the accuracy of the CPI's measurement of price level change. A shift to imputed rental value has improved the measure but still ignores a serious conceptual issue. The problem is examined in this article.


This descriptive and exploratory study has aimed to assess the participation of municipalities from Ceará in the financing of sport and leisure public policies through a unit analysis of expenditure in the Sport and Leisure Function (SLF). The period of analysis refers to the ten first years during which information has been made available on the Brazilian Public Sector Accounting and Fiscal Information System, from the National Treasure Department, from 2002 to 2011. Municipalities from Ceará don’t prefer inaction and present high adhesion to the sport and leisure agenda. Results of CP4 and TU3 indicate a strong expansion on expenditures in higher levels of urbanization and population class. Throughout the period, expenses in SLF have increased in a quite significant manner.

This article examines the accuracy of the National Institute's forecasts of incomes, inflation and employment from 1965 to 1975. It is found that in recent years the Institute has tended to underestimate inflation, although less seriously for the consumer price index than the other current price variables studied. The accuracy of the forecasts has generally increased in relative terms, although it has deteriorated in absolute terms. The forecasting performance in 1974 was particularly poor but there has been a distinct improvement in 1975 and 1976.

Education is always considered as the major determinant for the development of any economy. Enrollment at various levels also shows that how much education is common within the citizens of the country. Considering the importance of enrollment, the current study examines the influence of some macroeconomic variables on various levels i.e. primary, secondary, higher, college, professional and university enrollment in Pakistan. Time series data has been gathered on consumer price index, government revenue, employed labor force, government expenditure, and health expenditure for the period from 1972 to 2010. For long run estimates, Johansen Co integration test is used and short run estimates are taken through error correction model. The results of the study exhibit positive association of employed labor force, government expenditure and health expenditure with primary, secondary, higher, college, professional and university enrollment in Pakistan. On the other side, consumer price index and government revenue have been found to be inversely influencing enrollment at various levels. Short run results are also much favorable for the economy and reveals convergence towards long run equilibrium due to any disturbances in the short run period. At the end study gives some policy implications that government should decrease consumer price index and tax rate and to increase government expenditure in terms of education and health for higher enrollment rates in Pakistan.
