The total income of a country divided by it's total population gives the Per capita income. Money can't buy all the goods and services that are needed to live well so income by itself is not a completely adequate indicator of material goods and services that citizens are able to use For example,Money can't buy a pollution-free environment or ensure that one gets unadulterated medicines,unless one can afford to shift to a community that already has all these things.
Hope it's helpful for you...
