Why is per capita income considered better than total income for comparisons?
Correct Answer: A — It helps in comparing living standards across countries
Total income tells us how much money a country makes, but per capita income divides that amount equally among all citizens. This helps compare how well people actually live in different places. For example, India has a huge total income, but because of its large population, per capita income is lower than some smaller countries.
