Probably a straightforward problem. Why is the final column not center aligned vertically?
Here is the code I'm using:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{array}
\begin{document}
\begin{table}[h]
\begin{center}
\caption{Data Units, Sources, and Dates}
\begin{tabular}{| >{\centering\arraybackslash}m{1in} | >{\centering\arraybackslash}m{1in} | >{\centering\arraybackslash}m{1in} | >{\centering\arraybackslash}m{1in} |}
\hline
{\bf Variable} & {\bf Dates} & {\bf Units} & {\bf Source} \\[2ex] \hline
{\bf Nominal Physical Capital Stock} & 1950-1990 & Billions US\$ & Nehru and Dhareshwar (1993) \\[0ex] \hline
{\bf Total Population} & 1950-1990 & Billions & Nehru and Dhareshwar (1993) \\[0ex] \hline
{\bf Nominal GDP} & 1950-1990 & Billions US\$ & PWT \\[5ex] \hline
{\bf Real GDP per capita} & 1950-1990 & 2005 US\$ per capita & PWT \\[5ex] \hline
\end{tabular}
\label{tabular:UKJPNdata}
\end{center}
\end{table}
\end{document}
Best Answer
Since the use of
\\[<len>]
is the cause of the problem, here is a slightly different (more suggestive) solution:It's best to be consistent. As such, updating
\arraystretch
spreads the rows out evenly. I've also taken the liberty of usingbooktabs
's suggestions (limiting horizontal rules and never using vertical rules). The presentation looks cleaner and more professional.
