Chad: PPP conversion factor, households and NPISHs Final consumption expenditure (LCU per international $)

Key figures

What the numbers say

In 2025, Chad's PPP conversion factor, households and NPISHs Final consumption expenditure (LCU per international $) fell 15.32 on 2024 (from 238.09 to 222.76).

Across the 30 yearly changes before that (1995 to 2024), the average change was +0.93 and a typical year strayed about 16.99 from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 1.0 standard deviations below that average, so it was an ordinary year: it sits within the range of normal year-to-year movement.

On record, the biggest yearly rise was 58.01 in 1994 and the biggest yearly fall was 46.92 in 2015. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.

From 2016 to 2025 there is no clear straight-line trend: a straight line explains 8% of the movement over 10 observed years, so the value is moving around more than it is heading anywhere.

Worked out from the yearly values above. How the checks work: standard deviation, z-scores and straight-line trends.

What this measures

The purchasing power parity (PPP) conversion factor is a currency conversion factor and a spatial price deflator. They convert different currencies to a common currency and, in the process of conversion, equalize their purchasing power by eliminating the differences in price levels between countries, thereby allowing volume or output comparisons of gross domestic product (GDP) and its expenditure components. This conversion factor is for households and NPISHs Final consumption expenditure and the base currency is the US dollar.
