SMb – total score of extent of accomplishment of complex of actions of the subprogramme (State program);

SF" – degree of compliance of the actual amount of financing of the subprogramme (State program) planned in the accounting period (it is calculated by formula).

The expenditure of budgetary funds is considered:

effective if Eb value is more or equally 70;

ineffective in case of Eb value from 50 to 69;
