Abstract

The aim of this article is to update the indicators related to the financing of education in El Salvador. This need arises because the Central Reserve Bank of El Salvador presented in 2018 a new System of National Accounts (SNA) that modified the measurement of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of El Salvador. For this situation, the updated data is presented in percentages according to the General National Budget (PGN) and the GDP of the Ministry of Education budget (MINED) since 2000 to 2018; Secondly, the MINED budgets of 2004, 2009, 2014 and 2018 are presented in detail with the aim of verifying their expenditure structure; and finally, this article presents data on investment in education according to the GNP and GDP of the Republic of Costa Rica in the years 2005, 2010 and 2015 with the aim of bringing other data that help to understand this topic.
