The following table reports real GDP per person for several different economies in the years 1960 and 2010. It also gives each economy's average annual growth rate during this period. For example, real GDP per person in the Central African Republic was $1,010 in 1960, and it actually declined to $628 by 2010. The Central African Republic's average annual growth rate during this period was -0.95%, and it was the poorest economy in the table in the year 2010. The real GDP-per-person figures are denominated in U.S. dollars with a base year of 2005. The following exercises will help you to understand the different growth experiences of these economies.
