Target lemma: budget
Target surface form: budgets
Context:
A positive effect on wages In the same way as a surgeon would find it difficult to work in a country with a shortage of anaesthetists, the complementarities existing between locals and immigrants bring it about that the arrival of immigrants has a positive effect on the pay of locals. Giovanni Peri has calculated that a rise of 1% in the migratory flow causes an increase of between 0,6 and 0,9% in real long-term pay. And does so without taking into account the fact that the diversity contributed by immigrants contributes to the creation of ideas and to economic growth (a large proportion of naturalised immigrants are among American Nobel prize winners, whilst Google, Intel, Paypal, eBay and Yahoo were all founded by immigrants). Migrants are also net contributors to social systems, averaging 1% of the total budgets of European countries. The World Labor Organisation estimates that for example in Germany, an immigrant arriving at the age of 30, will make a net contribution (receipts less expenditure) of an average of 150,000 Euros to public <t>budgets</t> during his lifetime. Nicolas Sarkozy wished at the start of his mandate to look for missing points of growth "with the teeth."

Candidate senses:

{"sense_index": 1}

The context describes "total budgets" and "public budgets" as the overall financial resources or allocations that countries manage, which aligns closely with sense 1's definition of a sum of money allocated for a purpose. Sense 2, while related to planning, doesn't fit as well since 1% of "budgets" refers to the actual financial pool being contributed to, not the summary document itself. The examples and synonyms in sense 1 better capture the economic idea of net contributions to public finances. This choice prioritizes the contextual usage over the more formal planning aspect in sense 2.

{"sense_index": 2}

The context describes disputes stemming from the credit unions' inability to meet their debts during the financial crisis, which aligns directly with sense 2's definition of bankruptcy as the state of being unable to discharge debts. Sense 3's legal process is less fitting because the phrasing focuses on the financial failure itself rather than the formal proceedings, and the mortgage securities sale ties into the underlying insolvency issue. Sense 1 is metaphorical and irrelevant here. This choice prioritizes the economic reality over the procedural aspect.<|eos|> 2}

The context describes Deutsche Bank resolving disputes over mortgage securities without admitting guilt, which aligns with a resolved outcome or agreement. Sense 5 best captures this as "something settled or resolved; the outcome of decision making," matching the legal settlement example. Sense 3 is similar but less precise for the "in the settlement" phrasing. Thus, the index is 5. This fits the instructions for choosing the single best sense. The JSON is returned directly.
