Detailed Solution

Per-capita income is also known as average income, as it is calculated by dividing the total income of a country by its total population. With a per-capita income of US$ 12236 Per Annum or above, poor or underdeveloped, or low-income countries have a per-capita income of US$ 1005 PA or less. Per-capita income is not an appropriate measure because it has many limitations. Per-capita income does not tell us about the income distribution of a country; it is affected by the population size of a nation, and it does not tell us about the availability of essential resources in a country meant to influence the quality of life of people in that country.
