5 How to determine if a country is developing or developed… 1. GDP Per Capita –  GDP (Gross Domestic Product) = total of all economic activities divided by total population. Hint - Per Capita is Latin for per person.  Example: US has a GDP per capita of $45,800

7 3. Birthrate – number of births per 1,000 people. COPY BOX - low birthrate = high GDP

8 4. Life Expectancy – number of years the average person lives high life expectancy = high GDP COPY BOX

9 5. Agricultural Level - % of labor in farming COPY BOX High agricultural pecentage = - low GDP - low percentage of women working - high birthrate

10 Human Development Index (HDI) – the ranking system used to determine a country’s level of development. - Takes into account many stats and assigns countries a grade between 0 and 1. - More developed the higher the #.
