GDP: sources and methodology
GDP Data
- World Bank GDP - World Bank national accounts data, and OECD National Accounts data files.
- USA: U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA)
- China: National Bureau of Statistics of China (NBS) - The national accounts of China started at the beginning of the1950s. In 1952 the NBS was established. In 1956 NBS adopted the Material Product System (MPS) that was devised and used by the Soviet Union. Between 1985 and 1992, through a series of steps and arrangements, China transitioned from MPS to GDP, as the State Council of China (SCC) approved the establishment of a SNA (System of National Accounting using GDP to measure the national economy.

GDP Methodology
- Currency and magnitude
All GDP figures are expressed in US Dollar (US $, USD) and in single dollar units ($1=$1), not in thousands, millions, or billions.
- Global GDP
World GDP (or "Global GDP" or "GWP, Gross World Product") is the combined GDP of all countries in the world. Global GDP is equivalent to Global GNI, or Global GNP, since all of these will provide the same result when combining all production worldwide.
- Real Global GDP
The chart for Global GDP vs. World Population uses Real GDP figures.
- Global GDP Growth
As with each individual country's GDP Growth Rate figures, it is calculated using inflation adjusted GDP ("Real GDP" or "Constant Price GDP") at 2015 prices. - GDP Year
GDP figures (nominal, real, growth rates) are based on the latest data released.
Population Data
- The United Nations Population Division of the Department of Economic and Social Affairs every two years calculates, updates, and publishes estimates of total population in its World Population Prospects series. These population estimates and projections provide the standard and consistent set of population figures that are used throughout the United Nations system.
The World Population Prospect: the 2022 Revision provides the most recent data available. Estimates and projected world population and country specific populations are given from 1950 through 2100 and are released every two years.
Data underlying the population estimates are national and sub national census data and data on births, deaths, and migrants available from national sources and publications, as well as from questionnaires. For all countries, census and registration data are evaluated and, if necessary, adjusted for incompleteness by the Population Division as part of its preparations of the official United Nations population estimates and projections.
