How this figure is calculated
Gross value added at basic prices (GVA) (constant LCU) divided by GDP (current US$), matched on country and year. Neither publisher issues this ratio as a series; it is computed here from both.
Gross value added at basic prices (GVA) (constant LCU) ÷ GDP (current US$)
Computed from
- Gross value added at basic prices (GVA) Country official statistics, National Statistical Offices (NSOs)
- GDP Country official statistics, National Statistical Organizations and/or Central Banks
Statizoid computes this series; the underlying measurements belong to the publishers named above. The arithmetic is applied to every country and year where both inputs report, and nothing is estimated unless the page says so.
