Satın Alma Gücüne Yeni Bir Yaklaşım: İndirgenmiş Kişi Başı Gayri Safi Yurtiçi Hasıla

Abstract

Bu çalışma, satın alma gücü paritesine göre hesaplanan kişi başı GSYH ile diğer yöntemlerle hesaplanan kişi başı GSYH arasındaki büyük farkı ortadan kaldırmak için yeni bir yaklaşım sunmaktadır. Bu yaklaşım ile ülkelerin satın alma gücündeki enflasyon ve döviz kuru kaynaklı değişimler dikkate alınmakta ve böylece ülkelerdeki satın alma gücü kayıpları kişi başı GSYH üzerinden takip edilebilmektedir. Bu sayede satın alma gücü paritesine göre yapılan hesaplama indirgenmekte ve kişi başı reel GSYH ile SAGP'ye göre hesaplanan kişi başı GSYH arasındaki olası farklar azaltılmaktadır.

A New Approach to Purchasing Power: Discounted Gross Domestic Product Per Capita

Abstract

This study presents a new approach to eliminate the large gap between GDP per capita calculated according to purchasing power parity and GDP per capita calculated by other methods. With this approach, inflation and exchange rate-driven changes in the purchasing power of countries are taken into account, and thus, the purchasing power losses in countries can be tracked through GDP per capita. In this way, the calculation based on purchasing power parity is discounted, and the potential differences between the real GDP per capita and the GDP per capita calculated according to PPP are reduced.

Keywords
