1) The countries are arranged based on the costs in 2005.

The figures of the different countries have been made equal in terms of purchasing power using the PPP (Purchasing power parity) method. For this reason, the figures for Finland, for example, are not the same as the euro-denominated data of the release from 17 April 2013.
