Integrated Analysis of the Cost of Living Index in Asian Countries

Year 2023, Issue: 120, 247 - 262, 16.10.2023
https://doi.org/10.33203/mfy.1329330

Abstract

This study investigated the cost of living in 44 Asian countries in 2023. The data were collected from numbeo.com and analyzed using the Entropy method from the Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) methods. The five criteria determined for this analysis were ranked according to the MOOSRA, MOORA, VIKOR and WASPAS methods. The results showed that the countries at the top of the cost of living ranking have similar rankings in other methods. This study is expected to contribute to the literature on the current cost of living analysis with MCDM methods.

Abstract

Bu çalışma, 2023 yılında 44 Asya ülkesindeki yaşam maliyetini araştırmıştır. Veriler numbeo.com adresinden toplanmış ve Çok Kriterli Karar Verme (MCDM) yöntemlerinden Entropi yöntemi kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Bu analiz için belirlenen beş kriter MOOSRA, MOORA, VIKOR ve WASPAS yöntemlerine göre sıralanmıştır. Sonuçlar, hayat pahalılığı sıralamasında üst sıralarda yer alan ülkelerin diğer yöntemlerde de benzer sıralamalara sahip olduğunu göstermiştir. Bu çalışmanın ÇKKV yöntemleri ile hayat pahalılığı analizine ilişkin mevcut literatüre katkı sağlaması beklenmektedir.
