Price Comparison of Essential Products
Here are the price comparison data for various products that are typically included in the Easter basket:
| Product | Price in Ukraine (UAH) | Price in Poland (UAH) |
|---|---|---|
| Paska (1 kg) | 179.8 | 185 |
| Homemade Sausage (0.5 kg) | 200 | 244 |
| Boiled Pork (0.5 kg) | 265 | 195 |
| Fat (0.5 kg) | 110 | 200 |
| Hard Cheese (0.5 kg) | 265 | 117 |
| Butter (0.5 kg) | 194.75 | 185 |
| Soft Cheese (0.5 kg) | 107.5 | 68 |
| Horseradish (250 g) | 27 | 39 |
| Salt (150 g) | 3 | 5 |
Conclusions on Pricing Policy
At first glance, the cost of products in Poland may seem higher. However, upon closer examination in specific categories, such as dairy products and meat (excluding sausage), the situation changes. For example, hard cheese in Poland costs half as much, and soft cheese is nearly 40 UAH cheaper than in Ukraine. At the same time, Ukrainian consumers can save on paska and horseradish.
Thus, the cost of the Easter basket in Ukraine and Poland is approximately comparable, although the price differences for individual products may affect the overall expenditure.
