I would be very grateful if you could advise if PPP is an appropriate measure of how much a certain salary in a country is worth compared to another country.

For example, the average salary in the UK is GBP 24,908. The average salary in the US is USD 45,113.

If the PPP is 1.55 between USD and GBP, is it fair to say the USD 45,113 salary is worth GBP 29,105. Thus, the average salary in the US is worth GBP 4,197 more than the average UK salary (of GBP 24,908).

If not, please could you advise of the correct measure.

Thank you for your time and advice with this. It is much appreciated

Hello,

I have the following question that i am confused as to how to go about answering.

1) Impact of persistent national Debt on UK economic growth

2) How price elasticity of demand helps UK firms devise their pricing during current economic downturn

3)What is Efficient Market Hypothesis? Discuss with evidence, the efficiency of capital markets & why market efficiency is important for stock market listed companies

Could you help me with the edexcel unit 6.Do you have, or can you provide a brief overview of the UK economy over the last 10 years, perhaps up to the current crisis. I am interested in basic data (gdp, unemployment, current account, government deficit etc) as well as any significant demand side & supply side changes. You’d think this would be out there somewhere, but I can’t find it anywhere in a simple format!

Thanks very much.

Hello, In unit 5b economic development, it is said that free market forces influence economic growth of a developing country.
Can you please tell me what do free market forces refer to?
Are they : trade liberalisation, privatisation, deregulation, reduced restrictions on capital flows?
Also, if a country adopts protectionism, i.e reducing imports, will they wont export ?
Thank you so much.

Hello,
Is there any other political influence on the falling rate of sterling, something like monetary policy or political uncertainty? And why did some news reports say inflation and weak sterling could be helpful to UK economy? Thanks.
