Such fluctuations change a country's ranking from one year to the next, even though they often make little or no difference to the standard of living of its population. GDP per capita is often considered an indicator of a country's standard of living; [1] [2] however, this is inaccurate because GDP per capita is not a measure of personal income.
A country's gross domestic product (GDP) at purchasing power parity (PPP) per capita is the PPP value of all final goods and services produced within an economy in a given year, divided by the average (or mid-year) population for the same year.

Given the differences in price levels, the size of higher income countries is inflated, while the size of lower income countries is depressed in the comparison.
