2) Inflation is the general rise in the price level. It measures how the price level in the economy rises over time. There are different types of inflation such as hyperinflation, galloping inflation and more depending on the rate of increase. There can be different ways to measure it such as through COnsumer Price Index (CPI), GDP deflator and WHolesale Price Index (WPI)
a) Using data from Fed Reserve, we plot the average annual CPI and inflation rate in the graphs below.
b) Demand pull inflation occurs
when AD is more than AS.. Here inflation arises due to demand
factors. In cost-push inflation, AD remains same but inflation
occurs due to increase in AS and thus supply side factors.
