As a student of Economics and a financial practitioner, I always do some research in things around us. Recently, I have done a Survey on Pricing in comparing the Starbucks Brewed Coffee (Grande Size of about 470ml) in JAPAN vs. TAIWAN in relationship to their GDP (Nominal) Per Capita. The conclusion : IN REAL TERMS, after taking the GDP into account, the Grande in Taiwan is more expensive than that in Japan !!! Hereunder are the Data : Japan Taiwan J/P *Grande Size Brewed Coffee in Starbucks JPY380- NTD85- - 2014/03/18 Fx vs. USD 101.76 30.32 - Price in USD 3.73 2.80 1.33 **IMF 2012s GDP (Nominal) Per Capita 46,707- 20,336- 2.30 Source : *Starbucks Official Website **International Monetary Fund [Copyright © Tianliang Hau --- All Rights Reserved]
