Other notes

Calculation of annual average growth rates. In general, they are defined as the coefficient b in the exponential trend function yt = aebt where t stands for time. This method takes all observations in a period into account. Therefore, the resulting growth rates reflect trends that are not unduly influenced by exceptional values.

Population growth rates are calculated as exponential growth rates.

The term “dollars” ($) refers to United States dollars, unless otherwise stated.

Details and percentages in tables do not necessarily add to totals because of rounding. The following symbols have been used:

A hyphen (-) indicates that the item is not applicable. Two dots (..) indicate that the data are not available or are not separately reported. A zero (0) means that the amount is nil or negligible. Use of a dash (–) between dates representing years, e.g. 1980–1990, signifies the full period involved, including the initial and final years.
