While inflation represents an
overall upward price
movement of goods and
services, deflation acts
adversely. We take a look at
the basics of both.
Inflation is a rise in
the general level of
prices of goods and
services in an
economy over a
period of time
- An increase in the general level of prices.
- decrease in the purchasing power of the
currency.
- High or unpredictable inflation rates are
regarded as harmful to an overall economy.
- make it difficult for companies to budget or plan
long-term.
- affect the balance of trade.
- negative impacts to trade from an increased
instability in currency exchange prices caused
by unpredictable inflation.
Deflation is a decrease in
the general price level of
goods and services.
Deflation occurs when
the inflation rate falls
below 0% (a negative
inflation rate).
Deflation is a problem in a modern economy because
it may aggravate recessions and lead to a deflationary
spiral.
The effects of deflation are:
1 Decreasing nominal prices for goods
and services.
2 Increasing buying power of cash
money and all assets denominated in
cash terms.
3 May decrease investment and
lending if cash holdings are seen as
preferable.
4 Benefits recipients of fixed incomes.
