Ethiopia GDP Growth Rate (YoY) : Definition
The Ethiopia Year-over-Year GDP annual growth rate measures the percentage change in Ethiopia's total economic output between two consecutive years. It is calculated by taking the difference between the current year's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and the previous year's GDP, then dividing that difference by the previous year's GDP and multiplying by 100. This rate indicates the pace of economic expansion or contraction in Ethiopia.
