In order to lighten the reporting burden of countries to different international and regional organizations the UNSD receives data from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (ECE) and the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) on behalf of their constituents.</p>\n<p>The official national accounts data in domestic currency are then validated to check for errors. The validation procedure involves ensuring that aggregates are equal to the sum of their components and that data series which are provided in multiple tables are represented consistently. After that, the current and constant price GDP series are converted into US dollars by applying the corresponding market exchange rates as reported by the International Monetary Fund (IMF). When these conversion rates are not available other IMF rates are used (official rates or principal rates).</p>\n<p>For countries whose exchange rates are not reported by the IMF, the annual average of United Nations operational rates of exchange (UNOPs) is applied. The UNOPs are conversion rates that are applied in official transactions of the United Nations with these countries. These exchange rates are based on official, commercial and/or tourist rates of exchange.</p>\n<p>In cases where a country experiences considerable distortion in the conversion rates, the UNSD uses price-adjusted rates of exchange (PARE) as an alternative to the exchange rates reported by the IMF or UN operational rates of exchange. The conversion based on PARE corrects the distorting effects of uneven price changes that are not well reflected in the other conversion rates. Consequently, unrealistic levels in GDP and other national accounts aggregates expressed in US Dollars may have been adjusted for certain time periods to improve the economic analysis at national, regional and local levels.</p>\n<p>The estimates derived for each year are compared to previous years to ensure that estimates are prepared consistently from year to year.

In order to lighten the reporting burden of countries to different international and regional organizations the UNSD receives data from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (ECE) and the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) on behalf of their constituents.</p>\n<p>The official national accounts data in domestic currency are then validated to check for errors. The validation procedure involves ensuring that aggregates are equal to the sum of their components and that data series which are provided in multiple tables are represented consistently. After that, the current and constant price GDP series are converted into US dollars by applying the corresponding market exchange rates as reported by the International Monetary Fund (IMF). When these conversion rates are not available other IMF rates are used (official rates or principal rates).</p>\n<p>For countries whose exchange rates are not reported by the IMF, the annual average of United Nations operational rates of exchange (UNOPs) is applied. The UNOPs are conversion rates that are applied in official transactions of the United Nations with these countries. These exchange rates are based on official, commercial and/or tourist rates of exchange.</p>\n<p>In cases where a country experiences considerable distortion in the conversion rates, the UNSD uses price-adjusted rates of exchange (PARE) as an alternative to the exchange rates reported by the IMF or UN operational rates of exchange. The conversion based on PARE corrects the distorting effects of uneven price changes that are not well reflected in the other conversion rates. Consequently, unrealistic levels in GDP and other national accounts aggregates expressed in US Dollars may have been adjusted for certain time periods to improve the economic analysis at national, regional and local levels.</p>\n<p>The estimates derived for each year are compared to previous years to ensure that estimates are prepared consistently from year to year. Additionally, the growth rate from year to year is analysed to identify anomalies in the data.</p>\n<p>The constant-price GDP series for each country is then divided by its population to obtain its real GDP per capita.</p>\n<p>More information on the methodology to estimate the data is available on <a href=\"https://unstats.un.org/unsd/snaama/assets/pdf/methodology.pdf%20\">https://unstats.un.org/unsd/snaama/assets/pdf/methodology.pdf</a></p>", "details": {}, "id": 12929687, "action_name": "Source string changed", "url": "https://hosted.weblate.org/api/changes/12929687/?format=api" }, { "unit": "https://hosted.weblate.org/api/units/29682917/?format=api", "component": "https://hosted.weblate.org/api/components/sdg-metadata/8-1-1/?format=api", "translation": "https://hosted.weblate.org/api/translations/sdg-metadata/8-1-1/es/?format=api", "user": null, "author": null, "timestamp": "2021-09-24T23:02:04.285853+02:00", "action": 30, "target": "<p>Description: </p>\n<p>The underlying annual GDP estimates in domestic currency are collected from countries or areas annually through a national accounts questionnaire (NAQ), while the underlying population estimates are obtained from the UN Population Division on <a href=\"https://population.un.org/wpp/Download/Standard/Population/\" target=\"_blank\"><u>https://population.un.org/wpp/Download/Standard/Population/</u></a> </p>", "old": "<h1>Data sources</h1>\n<h2>Description:</h2>\n<p>The underlying annual GDP estimates in domestic currency are collected from countries or areas annually through a national accounts questionnaire (NAQ), while the underlying population estimates are obtained from the UN Population Division on <a href=\"https://population.un.org/wpp/Download/Standard/Population/\">https://population.un.org/wpp/Download/Standard/Population/</a></p>", "details": {}, "id": 12929686, "action_name": "Source string changed", "url": "https://hosted.weblate.org/api/changes/12929686/?format=api" } ] }
