65 TableIPA 2009 Multi-beneficiary StatisticalCooperation Programme13.2.2 SubsidiesThe following methodology has been applied for estimation of subsidies at previousyear prices.Applying the hypothesis for the same branches, the changes of volume of subsidiesfollow the same changes in the volume of value added of the economic activitieswhich have subsidies, and the existing information is given as follows:S = Subsidies on products;i = branches;t = current year;t-1 = previous year;IVOL = volume index of value added of economic activity.p = current prices;p-1 = prices of previous year;For each branch, it is calculated the value of subsidies at prices of previous year, bythe respective volume index.The formula used is as follows:SUB p-1 i ,t= [(SUB p i,t / SUB p-1 i,t-1 ) / IVOL i,t ] * SUB pThe following table describes the process of estimation of Subsidies at prices ofprevious year.In this context, the columns 1 and 2 include all data of subsidies at current prices,results of the process of estimation at current prices. The Value Index is calculated inthe column 3. The results of the volume indexes of value added respectively forbranches taken in estimations are reflected in the column 4. The calculations areshown in the column 5 that contains the value at prices of previous year, multiplyingthe data on column 1 by column 4.13.2.
