The graph shows the expenditure rate of the government on education and training and rate of 18-24-year-olds participation in five countries in 2002
Overall, in all nations, participation rate was a great deal higher than expenditure rate. The biggest gap between rates was 39%, whereas the smallest one was 13%.
The most significant differences in the expenditure rate of the government and young adults were illustrated by Poland and Hungary, in which the former was more than twice lower than the later. Poland had the most significant differences in the whole table; the rate of the government was almost nine times lower than the rate of 18-25-year-olds, it was 5% and 44%. As for Hungary, the difference was not as noticeable as for Poland, but it amounted to 21%.
Despite the fact that all countries had a lower metric of the expenditure rate, comparing with the participation, for other three nations the differences were not as vital as for the previous. In Czech Republic the participation rate (27%) was thrice higher than the expenditure of the government (9%). Nevertheless, Romania and Slovenia had the lightest gap in those rates. It was only 13% and 15% accordingly. Despite the fact that the smallest difference had Romania, the less substantial had Slovenia because the divergence between the rates in Romania was more than the figure for the expenditure, whereas for Slovenia it was a great deal smaller.
