16	2010 USD PPP Calculation Details
17	The goal was to have all values presented be standardized to the same year and same currency unit; 2010 USD PPP was chosen. The monetary values in the papers can all be classified into one of three categories:
18	- Nominal Local Currency (LCU)
19	- Nominal US Dollars (USD)
20	- PPP US Dollars (PPP)
21	We also assessed for which year each value was calculated, i.e. when it was collected or for which year it was transformed (either through inflation or PPP adjustments).
22	- If the value was in PPP USD, we used U.S. CPI data to convert it to 2010 PPP USD.
23	For example, if we had 2014 PPP (indexed inflation: $108.5 to 2010 $100), we multiplied the value by 1/(108.5/100).
24	- If the value was in LCU, we used PPP conversion factor data to convert it to PPP USD (in the same year as the LCU), and then used CPI data to convert it to 2010 PPP USD.
25	For example, if we had 2014 RWF (265.9 RWF to 1 PPP USD), we multiplied the value first by 1/265.9 and then by 1/(108.5/100).
26	- If the value was in Nominal USD, we used exchange rate data to convert it to LCU (same year), then used PPP CF data to convert it to PPP USD (same year), and then used CPI data to convert it to 2010 PPP USD.
27	For example, if we had 2014 USD for a Rwanda project (682.4 RWF to 1 USD), we multiplied the value first by 682.4, then by 1/265.9, then by 1/(108.5/100).
