How many Dueling CA GDP Numbers are There?

[william the wie]

I just saw a deconstruction of the numbers on OAN and a different one on Fox a couple of days ago. Other than the fact that both estimates were lower than state and federal estimates they didn't have much in common. So, I want to know what how many battling estimates are out there?

I would think there are different ways to calculate it and different data points of collection. GDP for an individual state seems to be tough to calculate.

Gross domestic product (GDP) is a monetary measure of the market value of all the final goods and services produced in a specific time period, often annually.[2][3]GDP (nominal) per capita does not, however, reflect differences in the cost of living and the inflation rates of the countries; therefore using a basis of GDP per capita at purchasing power parity (PPP) is arguably more useful when comparing living standardsbetween nations, while Nominal GDP is more useful comparing national economies on the international market.
