This project aims to provide an econometric framework to estimate purchasing power parities (PPPs) and a method to compute standard errors associated with the World Bank’s International Comparison Programme (ICP)’s PPPs. The ICP regularly compiles and publishes estimates of PPPs of currencies and real incomes. These results are used for study of global inequality and poverty; macroeconomic analysis; the Human Development Index; and cross-country productivity comparisons. However, no estimates of ICP PPPs’ reliability are available. Results from this project are likely to improve the quality of widely used data sets including the Penn World Tables and the University of Queensland International Comparison Database relevant to banking.

本项目旨在提供一个估计购买力平价(PPP)的计量经济学框架和一种计算与世界银行国际比较方案S购买力平价相关的标准误差的方法。国际比较方案定期编制和公布货币购买力平价和实际收入估计数。这些结果被用于研究全球不平等和贫困；宏观经济分析；人类发展指数；以及跨国生产率比较。然而，目前还没有关于比较方案购买力平价可靠性的估计。该项目的结果可能会提高广泛使用的数据集的质量，包括与银行有关的宾夕法尼亚大学世界表格和昆士兰大学国际比较数据库。
