How this figure is calculated
Manufacturing, value added (constant LCU) divided by Population, total, matched on country and year. Neither publisher issues this ratio as a series; it is computed here from both.
Manufacturing, value added (constant LCU) ÷ Population, total
Computed from
- Manufacturing, value added Country official statistics, National Statistical Offices (NSOs)
- Population, total World Population Prospects, United Nations (UN)
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.
