Gross domestic product of countries in the world

Countries of the world sorted by their gross domestic product(GDP) to values ​​of purchasing power parity (PPP), the sum of allgoods and services produced by a country in a year, in relation topurchasing power parity (PPP .) This is an economic indicatorintroduced in the early nineties by the International MonetaryFund in a realistic way to compare living stndards across countries, taking into account the per capita gross domesticproduct in terms of cost of living in each country.

The PPP is one of the most appropriate for comparing living standards that the gross domestic product per capita, as it takes into account changes in prices. This indicator eliminates money illusion linked to changes in exchange rates, so that an appreciation or depreciation of a currency will not change thepurchasing power parity of a country, since the inhabitants ofthis country receive their wages and make purchases in the same currency. Ie, allows the exchange rates between currencies aresuch as to allow a coin has the same purchasing power anywhere in the world.
