Answer to Question 1

a. Numbers must be adjusted to account for the existence of an informal economyeconomic transactions that are not officially recorded and therefore left out of government calculations of a nation's GDP.
b. The great majority of the population is on the low end of the income scale in emerging markets (and developing economies). The mean or average does not accurately reflect a non-normal distribution; often, the median income would reveal a better picture of purchasing power.
c. Household income is several times larger than per-capita income because of multiple wage earners in these countries.
d. Governments in these countries may underreport national income so they can qualify for low-interest loans and grants from international aid agencies and development banks.

Answer to Question 2
