There is no reference GDP for this country, so the share is not calculated.

Adults: 23,151,502 × YER 800 × 12 = YER 222,254,419,200

Children: 16,239,297 × YER 400 × 12 = YER 77,948,625,600

YER 222,254,419,200 + YER 77,948,625,600 = YER 300,203,044,800

Offset benefits, recovered tax, administrative savings and later economic effects are not deducted. This is a gross cost, not a net cost.
