Over the past 15 years, the cost of the famous fast food in Ukraine - Kievskaya perepichka - has increased by 1011%, t. more than 10 times. At the same time, the Big Mac burger increased in price by 857%, t. more than 8.5 times. This is several times faster than both devaluation and inflation, which have grown more than 4 times over the past 15 years. both fast foods would cost much less if they went up in price according to official statistics, ICU analysts said this. According to them:.

It is emphasized that both fast foods rose in price faster than devaluation occurred and inflation grew.. And if the fall of the hryvnia, it is stated, has become a “habitual background phenomenon” for Ukrainians, then “the cash dollar does not even come close to covering the rate of appreciation”. Which indicates that official inflation statistics often do not correspond to the real state of affairs in the economy.

“In order to maintain the purchasing power of fast food for perepichka, your investment in hryvnia should bring 17.4% per annum, and for a burger – 16.3% per annum. In dollars this is 5.1 and 4.1% per annum, respectively.. So, a dollar under your mattress (or especially a hryvnia) will not save you from fast food inflation,” the analysts concluded.
