02What exactly is being measured
Mandatory annual bonus equal to one monthly salary, paid at the end of the year.
03Context
Equivalent benefits exist in more than a dozen countries [1].
04How we got this number
- Presence abroad
Sum of each place's weight: widespread = 1, regional = 0.5, marginal = 0.1. Where it only exists as a Brazilian export, the weight is multiplied by 0.5.
- 12.5
- Exclusivity E
From 0 (exists everywhere) to 1 (only in Brazil), on a log scale.
- 0.44
- Intensity I
How much more common it is in Brazil than in the other places where it exists.
Rule similar to that of several countries (fictional data). [2]
- 1 of 4
- Rarity coefficient R
R = E + 0.5 × (I ÷ 4) × (1 − E)
R = 0.44 + 0.5 × (1 ÷ 4) × (1 − 0.44) = 0.51
- 0.51
- Jabuticaba Index®
