8. INFLATION
• Inflation is a sustained increase in the general price level of goods and services in
an economy over a period of time resulting in a loss of value of currency.
• When the price level rises, each unit of currency buys fewer goods and services. Consequently,
inflation reflects a reduction in the purchasing power per unit of money – a loss of real value in
the medium of exchange and unit of account within the economy
10. Causes of Inflation in Austria in 1970s And 2000s
• Arise from internal and external events.
• Some inflationary pressures direct from the domestic economy
• It increases a firm's production costs.
• Fluctuations in the exchange rate can also affect inflation

• Increase in prices of imports
12. Government Stable these Shocks of Inflation
• Increase in the growth rate of output.
• Government should control the supply of money through effective monetary policy.
• Highly increasing unproductive expenditures must be control.
• Government should check the corruption first to eliminate the inflation.
• Control on population is also necessary to control inflation.
• Reduction in budget surplus.
• Reduction in monetary expansion.
• Effective tax system will be helpful to control the inflation.
• Improvement in balance of payment.
• Developments of agricultural and industrial sector will helps to control the inflation.
13. GROSS NATIONAL INCOME
• The gross national income (GNI) is the total domestic and foreign output claimed by residents of a
country, consisting of gross domestic product (GDP) plus factor incomes earned by foreign
residents, minus income earned in the domestic economy
• The gross national income has gradually replaced the gross national product (GNP) in
international statistics.

(Government of Austria, 2003) this document sets out the legal framework, terms, and principles of
Austrian development cooperation. The amendment to the Development Cooperation Act in 2003
established the Austrian Development Agency (ADA).
16. Causes of more GNI in Pakistan in 1960’s
• New loans will only add to our individual and collective debt burden.
• There are three components of foreign aid, which is generally known as Overseas Development Assistance
(ODA)
• Pakistan has received somewhere between one per cent and two per cent of ODA disbursed to all the
recipient countries between 2001 and 2013.
• To measure a country’s reliance on foreign aid, it is important to know how much ODA contributes to its
Gross National Income (GNI) every year — the higher the contribution, the higher the dependency.
17. GDP GROWTH RATE

(quarterly or yearly).
