Big Mac:
Find the price of a Big Mac at a local McDonald’s. Compare your price for a local Big Mac against the “Big Mac Index”(http://www.economist.com/node/13055650?story_id=E1_TPDVVGVD). Select a country and try to explain why there may be a discrepancy between the Big Mac Index based on the exchange rate and the actual price of a Big Mac.Be sure to respond to at least two of your fellow student’s posts.
