I gather data from NSDossier and NS economic formulae to prepare a report on the economic health of my region, Independence Hill. Here is the full form:
Date:
Total Population:
Avg IQ:
Main Tax Rate:
X number of Member Nation Tax Rates:
Total Exports:
Total Imports:
Total Net Exports:
Total Consumption:
Avg Exchange Rate:
Absolute Exchange Rate:
Inflation Rate:
Avg Unemployment Rate: 2.93%
Avg Income: Poorest 10%: | Middle Class: | Wealthiest 10%:
Money Supply:
Savings & Investment:
Velocity of Money:
Gross Regional Product:
Gross Regional Product Per Capita:
The method of calculation:
IQ: (√((HDI + Intelligence) x Productivity Score) / 100) + ECS = IQ
Example:
(HDI + Intelligence) x Productivity Score = (x)
√(x) / 100 = y
y + Economic Classification Score = IQ.
66.29 + 40.65 = 106.94
106.94 x 20,000 = 2,138,800
√(2,138,800) = 1,462.46367476
1,462.46367476 / 100 = y or 14.6246367476
14.6246367476 + 110 = 124.6246367476
Economic Productivity Rating: This is used in an equation that tracks the exchange rate of the Universal Treasury Note. A value is attached to whichever classification the economy is given. Example: Frightening = 50,000 and is the maximum. The scoring for this is inspired by NS Economic Formulae, but not identical. Scoring is set by the United States of Independence Hill but not totally far off from NS Economic Formulae scoring.
Employment Rate: NSDossier
Exports: NSDossier
Imports: NSDossier
Balance of Trade: How much more or less are we importing than exporting...
Average Exchange Rate: Exchange rate averaged between members of the region, values taken from NSDossier.
Absolute Exchange Rate: √(GRP Per Capita * EPR / 404,000,000) This is going to be the square root of (GRP per capita multiplied by the Economic Productivity Rating and then divided by 404,000,000).
Inflation: Subtract the starting date exchange rate from the end date exchange rate and divide by the starting date exchange rate. Multiply by 100 and your answer is the rate as a percentage.
Federal Income Tax: Set by the United States of Independence Hill and applies to every citizen of every State in the nation.
State Income Tax: Each member of the United States of Independence Hill region is classified by the Federal Government as a State and their taxes apply only to the citizens of their State.
Average Income: NationStates Trends.
Consumer Spending: NSDossier.
GRP: NSDossier.
GRP per capita: NSDossier.
Federal Budget: The budget percentage is listed in the Government section of the main page the Federal Government resides. That percentage is applied to GRP.
Federal Spending: This can also be found in the Government section of the main page Federal Government resides. Multiple States provide more tax payers and a larger GRP, which expands the Federal Budget, but they do not bring further expenses with them.
Money Supply: GDP or GRP minus 50 Trillion.
Savings & Investment: GDP or GRP minus Consumer Spending.
Velocity of Money: GDP or GRP divided by Money Supply.
Economic Productivity and Classification Scores: (Productivity / Classification)
Frightening = 50,000 / 100
All-Consuming = 45,000 / 95
Powerhouse = 40,000 / 90
Thriving = 35,000 / 85
Very Strong = 30,000 / 80
Strong = 25,000 / 75
Good = 20,000 / 70
Fair = 15,000 / 65
Reasonable = 10,000 / 60
Developing = 5,000 / 55
Struggling = 3,000 / 50
Weak = 1,000 / 45
Fragile = 500 / 40
Basket Case = 250 / 35
Imploded = 100 / 30
I use a different scoring system for Productivity and Classification that's slightly higher than what NSDossier uses, but you can feel free to go by their scoring system. We'd like to get some feedback from game players as to what you would like to see added to this, whether you would like us to do an economic report of your region, etc.
