    Because GDP itself is flawed, GDP cannot fully reflect the real output, but can only reflect to a certain extent, and this data can reflect the level of output creation of a country, rather than the standard of living. There is a big error in using per capita GDP to measure people's living standards.

    The per capita GDP can only be the average of the country's gross domestic product to each person, which does not reflect the level of living standards, and can only be said that a considerable part of the living standards are above the horizontal line. After all, some people earn hundreds of millions of dollars a year, and some people only earn tens of thousands of yuan a year.

    GDP per capita does not reflect the real standard of living. There are public welfare, public welfare, reserve stock and so on. Reflecting the standard of living is the disposable income of the individual.

    GDP per capita mainly reflects the level of productivity. The standard of living should be evaluated using a combination of GDP per capita and purchasing power parity.

    To a certain extent, it can still be reflected, and the data can reflect that many people's living standards are different, and the living standards still need to look at the interests of the country, the level of the country.

    Man is only one factor of production, and not all output (GDP) can be distributed to workers as income. Income is not equal to wealth, income is the concept of flow, and wealth is the concept of stock. Wealth is a more reasonable measure of people's living standards. Then there is the gap between the rich and the poor.

    GDP and the standard of living of residents are two different things. The gross domestic product is socially distributed, and after the State and the owners of the enterprises take the lion's share, the laborers receive the rest, which is little and uncertain.

    Of course, if the score is averaged, it is public ownership.

    GDP per capita, or real GDP per capita, is calculated by comparing the GDP achieved in a country's accounting period (usually one year) with the country's permanent population (or registered population).

    GDP per capita is often used as an indicator of economic development in development economics and is one of the most important macroeconomic indicators. However, per capita GDP cannot fully and truly reflect the national standard of living, because the GDP indicator itself is flawed

    1. GDP cannot fully reflect the real output of a country. 2. GDP cannot fully reflect the real standard of living of a country. 3. GDP does not account for income distribution.

    Therefore, a high GDP per capita ≠ a high standard of living.

    Among the well-known development theorists at home and abroad, even those who most respect the per capita GDP index only regard per capita GDP as one of the important reference indicators for a certain level of development and status, and no one simply equates per capita GDP with a country's international status and international influence.

    GDP per capita and income per capita are two indicators that are both related and distinct.

    GDP per capita is a reflection of the new value created by the whole society calculated by population, from the perspective of distribution, it includes national income (that is, various taxes), enterprise income (that is, corporate profits and depreciation of fixed assets) and labor income, so the concept of per capita GDP is larger than per capita income, that is, personal income (including the income of urban and rural residents) is only a component of GDP.

    For example, in 2014, the highest per capita GDP of Chinese was Karamay, Ordos and Alashan, with per capita GDP of 220,000 yuan, 200,000 yuan and 190,000 yuan respectively, much higher than Shenzhen's 10,000 yuan.

    Among them, Karamay produces oil, Ordos produces coal, and Alxa produces coal.

    The per capita disposable income of Karamay is less than 30,000 yuan, Ordos is less than 40,000 yuan, and Alxa is less than 30,000 yuan, all of which are lower than Shenzhen.

    GDP of a place = remuneration of workers + net production tax + depreciation of fixed assets + operating surplus.

    Looking at the equation, we find that GDP per capita and labor compensation per capita are not consistent. Because there are three variables of "net production tax + depreciation of fixed assets + operating surplus".

    The inconsistency or serious deviation between per capita GDP and per capita income indicates that the circulation efficiency of the economy is low.

    GDP per capita is mainly used to measure the standard of living, because GDP reflects the abundance of commodities in society, so that per capita can be simply regarded as personal living standards (for example, 10 people in country A have produced 10,000 and 1,000 per capita, and 2 people in country B have produced 8,000 and 4,000 per capita, but although country B is not as rich as country A, people in country B may live better).

    1. GDP is an important comprehensive statistical indicator in the accounting system, and it is also the core indicator in China's new national accounting system. It reflects the economic strength and market size of a country (or region).

    2. GDP is an indicator that reflects the results of the production activities of permanent resident units. A resident unit is an economic unit that has a centre of economic interests within the economic territory of a country.

    GDP per capita is not income per capita.

    GDP per capita is calculated by comparing the GDP achieved in a country's accounting period (usually one year) with the country's permanent population (or registered population). It is a standard to measure the living standards of people in all countries.

    Per capita income refers to per capita disposable income. Personal disposable income refers to the balance of personal income after deducting various direct taxes and non-commercial expenses paid to **.

    GDP per capita is a concept of aggregate, which is the number that evenly distributes the total GDP of a country's economy to each person. No country will divide its wealth equally among everyone, nor will it be able to distribute its wealth equally among everyone. Income, although included in the gross national product, is clearly lower than the gross national product.

    From the perspective of GDP composition, China's wages account for about 20% of GDP, while the United States is as high as 50%.

    For example, according to the statistics of the National Bureau of Statistics in 2010, the per capita disposable income of urban residents in China is only more than 19,000 yuan, which is more than 2,900 US dollars in US dollar terms, which is nearly half of the per capita GDP of 4,400 US dollars. GDP per capita is the embodiment of national wealth creation ability, and per capita income is the embodiment of national wealth distribution ability.

    There is still a considerable gap between China's per capita income and per capita GDP.

    No, GDP is gross domestic product.

    Per capita is the total value divided by the number of people.

    GDP per capita is the value of production per person.

    But it's not income, it's output.

    You have created so much wealth.

    Personal disposable income is DPI and has paid taxes, while fully disposable personal income is PI and has not paid taxes.

    No, GDP includes total investment, imports, exports and consumption, which is the gross national product. GDP per capita is the gross national product of our country.

    At the end of last year, China's GDP was 568845 billion yuan, the number of people in China was 136072 million, and the per capita GDP was 568845136072 = 10,000 yuan.

    Answer: Hello, this is Xiaowei, who likes to travel, and I am happy to serve you. Your question has been received, and Wei is trying to find the information and sort out the answer, and is now in the process, please wait a while

    Per capita GDP is the per capita gross national product and the average of total wealth, and per capita income is the average level of the first distribution excluding the secondary distribution of national operation and social welfare, and the national per capita income is generally lower than the per capita GDP.

    GDP per capita is a reflection of the new value created by the whole society calculated by population, from the perspective of distribution, it includes national income (that is, taxes), enterprise income (that is, corporate profits and depreciation of fixed assets) and labor income, so the concept of per capita GDP is larger than per capita income, that is, personal income (including the income of urban and rural residents) is only a component of GDP.

    It is better to understand it as one thing, and it is more reasonable than those who think it is different. For example, you use the company's resources to create 200,000 yuan and a GDP of 200,000 yuan for the company in one year. The company sent you 100,000 yuan, and there is another 100,000 yuan, which will not disappear, and will inevitably enter your company's income.

    The 100,000 yuan is used to invest in the purchase of machinery, and the 100,000 yuan will become other people's income, and this purchase of machinery is investment = the output of other people's production machines = 100,000 yuan = other people's income. If the boss does not invest, this 100,000 yuan is the boss's income.

    Regardless of foreign investment, imports and exports, output must be equal to income, and tax deductions should also be taken into account. Why do we feel that the average wage is less than the average GDP, because a large proportion of our country's GDP is infrastructure investment, the state has invested 10 billion yuan, and the salary may only be 1 billion yuan, and 9 billion yuan is finally allocated to the purchase of steel, cement, oil, coal, and electricity, and these raw materials themselves belong to the state, that is, the 9 billion yuan is finally returned to the state through state-owned enterprises.

    No. GDP is the output value, while income is wages, etc., which is much smaller than the GDP value.

    You're right. GDP per capita is the wealth created by people. Per capita income is the wealth obtained.

    But the concept of surplus value cannot be used here, because part of the state has to collect taxes, and this part cannot be saved. Because, national defense and scientific research need money, and these cannot be lost. And GDP per capita exceeds income per capita, which is quite normal in all countries.

    GDP per capita refers to the total amount of final products produced by all resident units of a country's (regional) economy divided by the population during the accounting period. Per capita income refers to the actual income of residents after paying personal income tax, property tax and other recurrent transfer expenses. These are two different concepts.

    In their respective senses, not only is per capita GDP much larger than per capita income, but GDP can only reflect the quantity of economic growth, not the costs and benefits, structure and distribution, and ecological and environmental conditions.

    It's definitely not the same. To put it simply, is the value you create for your boss the same thing as your income?

  33. Anonymous users2024-01-14

    The concept of GDP per capita is larger than that of per capita income, which means that personal income (including the income of both urban and rural residents) is only one component of GDP.

    Per capita GDP cannot be directly equated with the per capita income and living standard of residents, but it constitutes the main material basis for the per capita income and living standard of a country's residents, and is an important reference index for improving the per capita income and living standards of residents.

    Per capita national income is directly proportional to national income and inversely proportional to changes in population size. It can basically reflect the level of development of a country's productive forces and the living standards of its citizens.
