Thank you both. That’s actually the first time I see the $1.25/day post. I’m not sure if it’s due to it being more than a decade old or other reasons, but I found it extremely useful in directly and concisely explaining that such values are taking into account PPP and are based on consumption.
As that relates to the readings in the EA intro program, I just went back to check, and what I missed was that the analysis and comparisons are based on “international dollars” which account for PPP.
As mentioned though having a dedicated post in the handbook referring to this would be recommended. It would certainly answer some of the confusion I’ve had understanding some of the points before y’all took the time to respond here!
