Introduction to PPP (Purchasing Power Parity)

Purchasing Power Parity In layman language

First of all, PPP is not perfect but it is a theoretical scaling instrument that helps us understand our salary difference using the exchange rates provided and cost of goods in the particular country.

In simpler terms, to calculate which things we can afford if our salaries remain the same in the same country where I want to buy things.


Let me clear your confusion by presenting you with an example here how it goes, Imagine you have a $ 10,000 salary, you want to move abroad to the Belgium, should you directly convert your currency to check how much you should be paid ?

Well actually No, let's check with a burger, check if the price of 🍔Burger is the same in the Belgium as you have right now in Saint Kitts and Nevis. Even if you have tried to convert the price of it, you will find it slightly expensive or affordable so are you convinced now why exchange rates are not correct to check your salary.

So instead of checking exchange rates use Purchasing power parity values provided by 🌐World Bank, this index will guide and keep you informed about keeping inflation, expensive places in mind to negotiate it with your hr.

PPP index is used in salary conversion, if you move to a different country to evaluate you get the same value as you used to get in your motherland/work country to the country you moved or from the previous company to your country which can be expensive or lower as per exchange rate but as I said earlier it only converts the currencies.


Importance of PPP in economics

PPP is important because it helps us compare how well-off people are in different countries. It's like a fair way to see who can buy more with their money, regardless of the currency they use. It helps economists understand the standard of living and economic productivity across the globe.

Importance of PPP is very significant in economics to help economists, investors, enthusiasts and a closer check for governments also to check their ppp as it helps them understand how much affordability is there in a country. It also helps them understand -

  • Fair way of checking all the countries where who can buy more with their money regardless of currency they use.
  • Living standards across the nation.
  • Economic productivity across the globe.

  3. Data Retrieval - Data provided by World bank is stored into our databases then retrieved from it and calculates the ppp based on the selected origin and target country. The formulae goes by this - Select the countries from the boxes.

Salary you get in Saint Kitts and Nevis (origin country) whole divided by total multiplication of (source country Saint Kitts and Nevis index value multiplied by Target country BEL index value provided by World Bank)

  2. Ensuring Fair Compensation
  3. Informing Relocation Decisions
  4. Budgeting and Financial Planning
  5. Negotiating Job Offers

And for companies it gives them a relative index value so they are aware of their costs and the expenses and their product launch price is also affected.

Disadvantages of using PPP Salary Calculator

  1. Accuracy Concerns -
  2. As the data depends on the salary entered and the current market conditions like inflation, disaster or any unexpected incident also sometimes due to use of non-latest index value. The data is fetched from the World Bank so if they have not collected the new data it is not possible to update to the latest year from our side.

  3. Non-monetary benefits are not calculated -
  4. Non monetary benefits such as training opportunities, career development courses or flexible work opportunities differ from person and places.

  5. Risk of Misinterpretation -
