aupusGroups: AUPUS Groups
In SWS-Methodology/faoswsAupus: Package to perform the AUPUS calculation.

Description Usage Format Details

The AUPUS logic has many groupings of elements that require specialized processing. The numbers of these groupings could be hard-coded in the code, but to increase visibility of these groups (and for clearer understanding of the code) these groups have been defined in this object. This object is a dataset of the faoswsAupus package, and contains defintions for all the various groups used within this package.

1	data(aupusGroups)

A list object containing 1 numeric vector. Each vector specifies item type groups which are special scenarios for certain elements.

For an example, consider initialAsSupply. These four item types (tobacco, tea, cocoa, coffee) consider initial existence as a supply in the balance, where all other elements do not consider initial existence in the balance equation at all.

A list and short description of each element is below:

initialAsSupply A vector of the item types which consider initial existence as a supply in the balance equation.
reemploymentNotAsUtilization Most item types consider element 151 (Reemployment other sector) as utilization. However, some item groups do not, and those are specified in this vector.
excludedFromBalance This vector gives item types which are not balanced.
specialBalanceSugar Instead of computing the balance as the difference between supply and utilization, the balance is computed as 1000 times the ratio of element 161 (final existence) divided by element 171 (consumption).
specialBalanceNegate A vector of all item types where the negative of the computed value in the balance is used.
escrDivisionFactor: A division factor of 1000 is used in reporting production values (instead of 10000).
sugarDivisionFactor: A division factor of 1 is used in reporting production values (instead of 10000).
escrSugarProduction: These cases are handled differently in the calculation of element 51 (Production).
escrSugarExistence: These cases
