【印度网友】IMF：中国超过美国成为世界最大经济体

Sorry, America. China just overtook the US to become the world’s largest economy, according to the International Monetary Fund. Chris Giles at the Financial Times flagged up the change. He’d also alerted us back in April this year that it was all about to happen.

抱歉，美国，根据国币基金组织，中国刚刚超过你成为世界最大经济体。《金融时报》的编辑克里斯•贾尔斯标出了这一改变。今年4月，他也曾提醒我们这是必定会发生的。

Basically, the method used by the IMF adjusts for purchasing power parity, explained here. The simple logic is that prices aren’t the same in each country: a shirt will cost you less in Shanghai than San Francisco, so it’s not entirely reasonable to compare countries without taking this into account. Though a typical person in China earns a lot less than the typical person in the US, simply converting a Chinese salary into dollars underestimates how much purchasing power that individual, and therefore that country, might have. The Economist’s Big Mac Index is a great example of these disparities.

根本上说来，IMF用于调整购买力平价的方法在这里得到了解释。简单的逻辑是，并非每个国家的物价都是相同的。比如一件衬衫在上海卖得就比旧金山更便宜，所以没有把物价考虑进去的比较并非完全合理。虽然一位中国人赚得要比一位美国人赚得少得多，然而简单地把中国人的工资兑换为美元，会低估个体的购买力，并因此低估那个国家的购买力。《经济学人》的巨无霸指数就是这些差异的很好例子。【三泰虎注：巨无霸指数（Big Mac index）是一个非正式的经济指数，用以测量两种货币的汇率理论上是否合理。这种测量方法假定购买力平价理论成立】

So the IMF measures both GDP in market exchange terms, and in terms of purchasing power. On the purchasing power basis, China is overtaking the US right about now and becoming the world’s biggest economy.

IMF是以购买力平价来衡量两国GDP的。根据购买力平价，中国刚刚超过美国成为世界最大经济体。

We’ve just gone past that cross-over on the chart below, according to the IMF. By the end of 2014, China will make up 16.48% of the world’s purchasing-power adjusted GDP (or $17.632 trillion), and the US will make up just 16.28% (or $17.416 trillion).

根据IMF，我们刚刚经历了图标上的交叉点。据IMF估计，以购买力平价来衡量，中国2014年的经济规模是17.6万亿美元，占世界的16.48%，而美国经济规模为17.4万亿美元，占世界的16.28%。
