An example of purchasing power parity (PPP): If the purchasing power parity in the United States is 1 and the purchasing power parity in Poland is .6, then a cup of coffee in Poland is 40% cheaper than it is in the United States, relative to the Polish zloty. Purchasing power parity (PPP) is based on the GDP of each economy.
