Details
The Penn World Table provides purchasing power parity and
national income accounts converted to international prices for 188
countries for some or all of the years 1950–2004. The European Union
or the OECD provide more detailed purchasing power and real product
estimates for their countries and the World Bank makes current price
estimates for most PWT countries at the GDP level.
This version contains data from PWT version 6.2. As far as possible the
original data from PWT has been preserved. For example, percentages
have been maintained rather than converted to fractions.
