Big Mac index  

Definición

  • The Big Mac Index compares the prices of McDonald's Big Mac burgers, a fast food item produced and sold in 120 countries worldwide, as an indicator of possible overvaluation or undervaluation of the local currency relative to the U.S. dollar. The tongue-in-cheek analyses give an easily digestible example of the economic theory on purchasing power parity (PPP) and its applicability in the practical sense.
