AN EXTENSION OF BURGERNOMICS: USING A FULL-SERVICE RESTAURANT PRODUCT TO MEASURE PURCHASING POWER PARITY David Bojanic Rod Warnick And Michael Musante ABSTRACT The purpose of this paper is to determine if the price of a ‘burger’ at a themed restaurant chain (i.e., Hard Rock Café) in the casual dining segment is a better indicator of purchasing power parity (PPP) than the price of a ‘burger’ at a quick-service restaurant chain (i.e., McDonald’s). The “Big Mac Index” published by The Economist is the source for the price of a Big Mac sandwich in each of the represented countries. The index was originally developed to measure purchasing power parity based on exchange rates.
