"Purchasing power parity (PPP) means a state of equilibrium in the exchange rate between currencies. Hence a product selling at a particular price locally and abroad sells at the same price level when the exchange rate is taken into consideration. A McDonald's hamburger in the United States and in the United Kingdom for example is to be sold within the same price range when the exchange rate is calculated. McDonald's has had a large amount of success in its global expansion. The reasons for this comprise a number of factors, one of which is the perceived value to the purchaser. In all countries where McDonald's is sold, the customer perceives the value of food purchased for a certain price as economically viable. The food is of the same quality and portion size globally. This kind of stability is valued by the customer."Sample of Sources Used:
