Based on the analysis above, the paper draw some useful conclusions as followings:Regional differences in expenditure caused by the different effects of different economic growth, local fiscal expenditure policy-makers should take into full consideration the actual situation in the region; In addition, for those expenditures that the effect of economic growth were not obvious, adjustment should be given.
