In any case, the total EU budget, at around 1% of EU output, is relatively small, and has not changed for more than 30 years. The recalculation simply attempts to achieve a more accurate picture of the EU economy, correcting for activity not officially measured in national accounts, such as charity, drugs, and prostitution.
一国对欧盟预算的贡献反映其实际经济活动是自然而然的。无论如何，占欧盟产出1%左右的欧盟预算相对较低，并且30多年来没有什么变化。重新计算只不过是为了更准确地勾勒欧盟经济图景，纠正官方国民账户没有计算的活动，如慈善、毒品、卖淫等。
