What the difference does—and does not—mean

At an equivalent gross amount, the comparison isolates the effect of the two modelled tax systems. It does not claim that the same role commands the same exchange-rate salary in both countries.

Purchasing power adds a useful second lens, but national price indices are not personal budgets. Rent, healthcare, schooling and the city you choose can reverse a broad national ranking.
