Using data from The Economist's Big Mac Index for 2019, the following table shows the local currency price of a Big Mac in several countries as well as the actual exchange rate between each country and the United States. At the time of the data collection, a Big Mac would have cost you $5.74 in the United States and GBP 3.29 in the United Kingdom. The actual exchange rate between the British pound and the U.S. dollar was $1.25 per pound. The dollar price of a Big Mac purchased in the United Kingdom was, therefore, computed as follows: Dollar price of a Big Mac in the United KingdomDollar price of a Big Mac in the United Kingdom = = GBP 3.29×$1.25GBP 1.00GBP 3.29×$1.25GBP 1.00 = = $4.11$4.11 For the price you paid for a Big Mac in the United States, you could have purchased a Big Mac in the United Kingdom and had some change left over for fries!
