N2  - "Report on the Cost of Living in Ireland, June 1922" is a governmental economic report written in the early 20th century. The report evaluates the changes in the cost of living in Ireland, specifically comparing it to figures from 1914 to analyze the economic impact on wage-earning families after a period of significant instability.   The opening of the report sets the stage for its purpose, explaining that a committee was formed by the Provisional Government to calculate an official figure reflecting the cost of living changes. It outlines the methodology adopted for the inquiry, which consists of collecting prices for various commodities and analyzing household budgets across different regions of Ireland. The key findings presented in the opening detail that the overall cost of living for wage-earning classes saw an increase of 85.2% since July 1914, indicating the considerable economic pressures faced by families during this time of transition.
