Understanding Purchasing Power Parity by malikhassangul is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Purchasing power parity (PPP) is a theory that compares the average costs of goods and services between countries using exchange rates. PPP suggests that exchange rates adjust to equalize the prices of market baskets of goods between countries. PPP extends the "law of one price," which says identical goods should have the same price absent transportation costs or taxes. PPP uses consumer price indices (CPI) that measure average price levels to calculate implied PPP exchange rates between countries.
