GDP per capita is calculated by dividing either nominal or real GDP for a given year by the population in that year.
The nominal GDP per capita in 1870 was $195, while in 2005 was $42,079; the real GDP per capita for those same years was $2,509 and $37,522.

The GDP Deflator (also known as the Implicit GDP Deflator or Implicit Price Deflator) is a price index that represents the change in the average level of prices of all goods and services produced in an economy (i.e., included in GDP).

Q5 and Q8 Question 5 a) The GDP deflator is equal to (Nominal GDP/Real GDP) (100.
Thus, roughly two-thirds (19.1/28.8 = 0.663) of the change in nominal GDP from 1999 to 2004 was the result of changes in quantities, meaning that roughly one-third was the result of changes in prices.
The values for the deflator are: Year 1: Deflator = (440/440) (100 = 100 Year 2: Deflator = (510/390) (100 = 130.8 The change in the GDP deflator from Year 1 to Year 2 is (130.8 — 100)/100 = 0.308 or 30.8 percent.

 Background Information
GDP is equivalent to the value added to the economy by this activity.
GDP figures are released quarterly along with other National Accounts data and are available from the ONS or in it's publications such as Economic Trends and the Blue Book.
The GDP deflator is a much broader price index than the CPI, RPI or RPIX (which only measure consumer prices) as it reflects the prices of all domestically produced goods and services in the economy.

In addition to the GDP figures, there are GDP deflators, which measure the change in prices in total GDP and for each component.
With both GDP and the deflator, the market tends to focus on the quarter/quarter change.
The bond market often reacts to GDP, though the price moves are typically small, as much of the GDP data is easily predicted using monthly economic releases such as personal consumption, durable goods shipments, construction spending, international trade, and inventories.

Note that all real GDP calculations in this have been done using the base year of 1998; we can only compare real GDPs of two years or the GDP deflators of two years if they are calculated with the same base year.
So dividing the year 2000 GDP of 520 by the year 2000 GDP deflator of 200 and multiplying by 100 we obtain 260, which is year 2000 real GDP.
But also the GDP deflator calculation uses the quantities of each year, so that the 1999 GDP deflator is calculated using 1999 quantities and the year 2000 GDP deflator is calculated using year 2000 quantities.

GDP has risen by 12% from the first year to the second, but this increase is only partially due to additional output.
Also, notice that the GDP deflator is not identical with the CPI but provides an alternative to the CPI as a measure of inflation.
For example, from 1974 to 1975 the deflator showed inflation increasing from a 5.9% rate to a 9.3% rate, while the CPI showed it decreasing from an 11% rate to a 9.1% rate.

For the intermediate assumptions, the annual change in the CPI is assumed to decrease from 3.3 percent for 2006 to 1.9 percent for 2007, then rise gradually to the assumed ultimate rate of 2.8 percent for 2010 and later.
For the intermediate assumptions, the average annual growth in real GDP is projected to be 2.5 percent from 2006 to 2016, a slower rate than the 3.2 percent average observed over the historical 40-year period from 1965 to 2005.

 Gross domestic product
GDP on an income or output basis is probably at factor cost while the expenditure measures are usually at market prices, but the only way to be sure is to check the basis of the figures in question.
Every component of GDP (consumption, investment, exports, imports) is measured at both constant and current prices to allow economists to see how real output is changing, or how demand is changing for each type of expenditure, or how incomes are changing after adjusting for inflation.
The GDP deflator calculated from expenditure data at factor cost is also known as the implicit price deflator.

A chain weight index is essentially a geometric average of a Paasche and Laspeyres price index; the inflation rate for a year is calculated by averaging the inflation measures using the start of period basket and the end of period basket.
Because the chain-weight GDP deflator addresses the \ldblquote substitution bias\rdblquote issue detailed in section 3, traditional real GDP calculations using the prices in the base year a s fixed weights tend to overstate real output growth after the base year and understate real output growth before the base year.
Similarly, the GDP deflator computed using the fixed-weight real GDP figures will tend to understate the rate of inflation implied by the chain-weight GDP deflator after the base year and overstate inflation before the base year.
