Inflation is nothing but general increase of lives in the products whichever we buy, which leads to decrease in purchase power.
We measure inflation with:
Consumer Price Index(CPI):average change over time in the prices paid by urban consumers for a market basket of consumer goods and services.
Producer Price Index (PPI): Measures the average change over time in the selling prices received by domestic producers for their output.
Several Factors affecting Inflation are:
- Demand pull inflation: It occurs when the demand for that product increases i.e., lesser the goods the more it costs.
- Built-In Inflation: When workers demand higher wages and, in response, companies increase the prices of their products to cover higher wage costs.
- Global Factors: International events, such as geopolitical instability or changes in global supply chains, can impact inflation. For example, the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted supply chains worldwide, leading to increased prices for many goods and services.
