statisticstimes.com/economy/countries-by-projected-gdp-capita.php
GDP per capita is calculated by dividing GDP by midyear population. GDP (Gross Domestic Product) is the total market value of all final goods and services produced in a country in a given year. In Nominal method, market exchange rates are used for conversion. To make meaningful comparison, PPP is used to compare economies and incomes of people by adjusting for differences in prices in different countries.

GDP per capita of world in 2018 is forecasted at $11,727 its GDP per capita (PPP) is projected at $18,089. Total population of 191 economies is 7.461 billions. Per capita GDP of world is 1.54 times greater in PPP terms compare to nominal terms.
Luxembourg and Qatar would be the richest economy in nominal and PPP, respectively. South Sudan and Central African Republic would be the poorest economy in nominal and PPP, respectively. In exchange rates methods, Per capita wealth of richest economy Luxembourg would be 10.24 times greater than world average, while poorest economy South Sudan would be 47.67 times poorer than world average. In PPP, 1st ranked Qatar would be 7.11 times richer and lowest ranked Central African Republic would be 25.62 times poorer.
In nominal data, only Luxembourg would have gdp per capita of above one lakh US dollar. There would be 17 economies which has per capita income above $50,000. 44 has above $20,000 and 72 has above $10,000. 66 economies has per capita income greater than world's average.
