Disadvantages of using GDP
  • the GDP per capita is an average number. 
  • the GDP per capita cannot tell us anything about regional differences in a country. 
  • the GDP per capita doesn’t tell you anything about what you can buy for a certain amount of money in a specific country.
  • in some countries it is very difficult to measure the GDP.
