38、easures 75International Monetary Fund|October 2024viiA number of assumptions have been adopted for the projections presented in the World Economic Outlook(WEO).It has been assumed that real effective exchange rates remained constant at their average levels during July 30,2024August 27,2024,except fo
39、r those for the currencies participating in the European exchange rate mech-anism II,which are assumed to have remained constant in nominal terms relative to the euro;that established policies of national authorities will be maintained(for specific assumptions about fiscal and monetary policies for
40、selected economies,see Box A1 in the Statistical Appendix);that the average price of oil will be$81.29 a barrel in 2024 and$72.84 a barrel in 2025;that the three-month government bond yield for the United States will average 5.4 percent in 2024 and 3.9 percent in 2025,that for the euro area will ave
41、rage 3.5 percent in 2024 and 2.8 per-cent in 2025,and that for Japan will average 0.1 percent in 2024 and 0.5 percent in 2025;and that the 10-year government bond yield for the United States will average 4.1 percent in 2024 and 3.5 percent in 2025,that for the euro area will average 2.4 percent in 2
42、024 and 2.5 percent in 2025,and that for Japan will average 1.0 percent in 2024 and 1.3 percent in 2025.These are,of course,working hypotheses rather than forecasts,and the uncertain-ties surrounding them add to the margin of error that would,in any event,be involved in the projections.The estimates
43、 and projections are based on statistical information available through October 7,2024,but may not reflect the latest published data in all cases.For the date of the last data update for each economy,please refer to the notes provided in the online WEO database.The following conventions are used thr
44、oughout the WEO:.to indicate that data are not available or not applicable;between years or months(for example,202324 or JanuaryJune)to indicate the years or months covered,including the beginning and ending years or months;and /between years or months(for example,2023/24)to indicate a fiscal or fin
45、ancial year.“Billion”means a thousand million;“trillion”means a thousand billion.“Basis points”refers to hundredths of 1 percentage point(for example,25 basis points are equivalent to of 1 percentage point).Data refer to calendar years,except in the case of a few countries that use fiscal years.Plea
46、se refer to Table F in the Statistical Appendix,which lists the economies with exceptional reporting periods for national accounts and government finance data.For some countries,the figures for 2023 and earlier are based on estimates rather than actual outturns.Please refer to Table G in the Statist
47、ical Appendix,which lists the latest actual outturns for the indicators in the national accounts,prices,government finance,and balance of payments for each country.What is new in this publication:Following the recent release of the 2021 survey by the World Bank Groups International Comparison Pro-gr
48、am for new purchasing-power-parity benchmarks,the WEOs estimates of purchasing-power-parity weights and GDP valued at purchasing power parity have been updated.For more details,see Box A2 in the Statistical Appendix.For Bangladesh,fiscal year estimates of real GDP and purchasing-power-parity GDP are
49、 now used in country group aggregates.For Zimbabwe,the authorities have recently redenominated their national accounts statistics following the introduction on April 5,2024 of a new national currency,the Zimbabwe gold,replacing the Zimbabwe dollar.The use of the Zimbabwe dollar ceased on April 30,20
