GDP PER CAPI TA PPP | Not es

The GDP per capita PPP given on this page shows PPP GDP at purchaser's prices divided by
midyear population. Purchasing Power Parity GDP is gross domestic product converted to
international dollars using purchasing power parity rates. Using a PPP basis is more useful when
comparing generalized differences in living standards between nations because PPP takes into
account the relative cost of living and the ination rates of the countries, rather than using just
exchange rates which may distort the real differences in income.
GDP ANNUAL GROWTH RATE | Not es
The annual growth rate in Gross Domestic Product measures the increase in value of the goods
and services produced by an economy over the period of a year. Therefore, unlike the commonly
used quarterly GDP growth rate the annual GDP growth rate takes into account a full year of
economic activity, thus avoiding the need to make any type of seasonal adjustment.
