How we price this in Mexico
Mexico national base ranges come from named Mexican sources (repair price pages, predominantly CDMX-based), in pesos and never converted from another currency. We localize them with per-capita labour-income differences between states (CONEVAL, from INEGI's ENOE survey, Q2 2024): no official table gives appliance-repair-technician wages reliably across all 32 states — INEGI flags the SINCO 2643/2645 state breakdowns as having "low statistical precision" — so we use a general regional wage index as a proxy (same data source, larger sample, not occupation-specific; flagged as an estimate, not a stated fact). There is also no Mexican equivalent of the U.S. Regional Price Parities, so the price and overhead terms stay at the national baseline. Standard 16% VAT applies nationwide (8% effective in border zones) and prices are shown VAT-inclusive, though many small taxpayers do not itemise it — treat 16% as a ceiling. Prices are in Mexican pesos and never converted from another currency. The full formula, weights, clamp, and source vintages are on the methodology page.
