Prices adjusted to deflation and inflation?
« on: March 18, 2015, 02:41:38 PM »

So the Euro is collapsing and the dollar is rallying. What would be the prices adjusted for LL. Does anyone know some great options that are now affordable due to the us doller rallying?

I don t think it will change.
I hope the euro will stay low , and the dollars will keep increasing, it will take less time for american and people who want to work in the us (like myself) to save money if you consider an european doctor like guichet, but maybe I'm just dreaming lol

I think this is largely a very general question that pertains all businesses.

It depends on what the sources of expenditures are for the doctors and the operation itself. Of course, things like cost of living will be reduced big time if the price of a currency falls.

But if the nail is being made in US and used in Europe, the price of the nail in Euros would be higher.

It might even depend on the source of customers for a doctor. If a doctor in Europe is getting all his patients from the US, he might get greedy and charge more in Euros. But if he is getting a lot of local patients from Europe, he wouldn't do that.

Would love to hear inputs from others...

Depends on the doc. A lot have increased their prices, although some have charged the same. Because of the stronger dollar relative to other currencies now, those who haven't made any price adjustments in their currency are actually cheaper now than before. For example, Dr Parihar charges the same 900,000 INR today that he was charging back in 2009. Only difference is that back then, 900,000 INR was equal to around $20,000 USD whereas now it's like $14,000 USD.
