Abstract

The Gambia is a small country in West Africa that depends on tax revenue to fund her financial obligations and needs. In 2024, The Gambia hosted the second largest world gathering the OIC summit. Over the years, The Gambia was preparing for this event, and it incurred a lot of capital spending on infrastructure and other key areas. This research assesses the impact of fiscal policy (government spending) on the economy of the Gambia from 2010 to 2020. We obtained a time series data on GDP, Government expenditure, Tax revenue, export and Inflation and use OLS estimation to ascertain the relationship between Government expenditure and tax revenue of GDP Growth of The Gambia. Our findings shows that Government expenditure and tax revenue are significant contributors to GDP Growth in The Gambia from 2010 to 2020 and they are positively correlated to GDP Growth. Our findings also showed that export and inflation were not significant in the model. There is a limitation to our research due to unavailability of data, we were only focus from 2010 to 2020 future researcher on this domain can try expanding the period to see clearer picture of the relationship of fiscal policy variables on GDP Growth.

Abstract

This paper assesses the impact of public spending on education and health on life expectancy in five countries: Germany, Japan, India, Brazil, and South Africa, using data from 2010 - 2021 from WDI. The methodology involves descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, regression analysis, and visual representation. The dependent variable is life expectancy, while education and health expenditure (as a percentage of GDP), along with GDP per capita, are the independent variables. Findings show a statistically significant positive relationship between health spending and life expectancy, particularly in high-income countries such as Japan and Germany. However, education spending does not show any meaningful impact across the five countries. Country-specific interactions suggest varying points of efficiency in spending, with South Africa standing out as an outlier, showing high expenditure but poor outcomes, likely due to systemic health burdens. The study concludes that health spending has a more direct and meaningful impact on longevity than education spending within the years of study. Policy recommendations emphasize increasing health investment, improving the efficiency of healthcare delivery, and enhancing education to indirectly support health outcomes. Limitations include sample size and omission of other socio-economic variables such as disease burden, healthcare access, and governance quality.
