From 1996 to 2006, average household disposable income in Taiwan increased 10.5 %, but over the same period the CPI rose 8.3 %. Thus the average household's income should have grown enough to cover the increase in prices.
再觀察家庭可支配所得，就平均數而言，1996 至 2006 年的增幅為 10.5％，而同時期消費者物價指數則增加 8.3％，一般家庭的收入似乎應足以抵銷物價上漲。
