About the GDP Growth Rate Calculator

GDP growth rate measures how much an economy's total output has expanded (or contracted) compared to a previous period, and is one of the most closely watched indicators of overall economic health.

Formula: GDP Growth Rate = ((Current GDP − Previous GDP) ÷ Previous GDP) × 100

Two consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth is a commonly cited informal signal of a recession, though official recession dating considers a broader range of economic indicators.
