Calculation Notes

Data Updates

The database behind this calculator is updated at least once a month with official data. Most countries publish updates within the first 2 weeks of each month but in some cases it takes more time. Monthly updates make the most recent months and quarters available as inputs. Updates can also slightly affect the result of annual calculations to the current year, which becomes more accurate although the difference for long time periods is usually insignificant.
