In economics, inflation is a sustained increase in the general price level of goods and services in an economy over a period of time.
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.
Inflation rate, the annualized percentage change in a general price index, usually the consumer price index, over time.

In Macroeconomics Income and Employment are interchangeable terms, since in the short-run National income depends on the total volume of employment or economic activity in the country. As income and employment are synonymous the employment theory is also called income theory.
It should be clear to readers that the classical economists did not formulate any specific theory of employment as such. They only laid down certain postulates which subsequently developed as a theory.
This presentation speaks in the concept of Macroeconomic policy and how it affects the economy. It discusses the basic concepts of macroeconomy, it's definition, types, features, effect, importance and weakness.
Macroeconomics (from the Greek prefix makro- meaning "large" + economics) is a branch of economics dealing with the performance, structure, behavior, and decision-making of an economy as a whole.

Introduction
In life, there are universal laws that govern everything we do. These laws are so perfect that if you were to align yourself with them, you could have so much prosperity that it would be coming out of your ears. This is because God created the universe in the image and likeness of him. It is failure to follow the universal laws that causes one to fail. The laws that were created consisted of the following: ·
Law of Gratitude: The Law of Gratitude states that you must show gratitude for what you have. By having gratitude, you speed your growth and success faster than you normally would. This is because if you appreciate the things you have, even if they are small things, you are open to receiving more.
Law of Attraction: The Law of Attraction states that if you focus your attention on something long enough you will get it. It all starts in the mind. You think of something and when you think of it, you manifest that in your life. This could be a mental picture of a check or actual cash, but you think about it with an image.
Law of Karma: the Law of Karma states that if you go out and do something bad, it will come back to you with something bad. If you do well for others, good things happen to you. The principle here is to know you can create good or bad through your actions. There will always be an effect no matter what.
Law of Love: the Law of Love states that love is more than emotion or feeling; it is energy. It has substance and can be felt. Love is also considered acceptance of oneself or others. This means that no matter what you do in life if you do not approach or leave the situation out of love, it won't work.
Law of Allowing: The Law of Allowing states that for us to get what we want, we must be receptive to it. We can't merely say to the Universe that we want something if we don't allow ourselves to receive it. This will defeat our purpose for wanting it in the first place.
Law of Vibration: the Law of Vibration states that if you wish on something and use your thoughts to visualize it, you are halfway there to get it. To complete the cycle you must use the Law of Vibration to feel part of what you want. Do this and you'll have anything you want in life.
For everything to function properly there has to be structure. Without structure, our world, or universe, would be in utter chaos. Successful people understand universal laws and apply them daily. They may not acknowledge that to you, but they do follow the laws. There is a higher power and this higher power controls the universe and what we get out of it. People who know this, but wish to direct their own lives, follow the reasons. Successful people don't sit around and say "I'll try," they say yes and act on it.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. The Flow of Goods and Services
• A simple economic model illustrating the flow of goods and services though
the economy. In the model, producers are termed as "firms"
while consumers are referred to as "households." Firms supply goods and
services while households consume these goods and services. Factors of
production (land, labor, capital) are supplied by the household to firms and
the firms convert these into finished products for household consumption.
4. Indicators of a Country’s Aggregate Output
• The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is the godfather of the indicator
world. As an aggregate measure of total economic production for a
country, GDP represents the market value of all goods and services
produced by the economy during the period measured, including personal
consumption, government purchases, private inventories, paid-in
construction costs and the foreign trade balance (exports are
added, imports are subtracted).
5. • The GDP is an extremely comprehensive and detailed report.
• the GDP figures as reported to investors are already adjusted for inflation. In
other words, if the gross GDP was calculated to be 6% higher than the
previous year, but inflation measured 2% over the same period, GDP growth
would be reported as 4%, or the net growth over the period.
• There are those who insist that advanced economies should aim to have 0%
inflation, or in other words, stable prices. The general consensus, however, is
that a little inflation is actually a good thing.
6. The two aspects of the definition of GDP
• Why do we use the market value?
• What do we mean by final goods?
7. GDP is presented using market value of production because the economy
produces different types of goods which cannot be directly added to each
other.
The use of market values provides GDP estimates that are easy for everyone to
interpret.
8. The calculation of GDP only includes final goods. These goods are purchased
not for the purpose of resale or producing other goods for further sale (i.e.,
intermediate goods ) but for consumption.
In the computation of GDP, we do not include the purchase of intermediate
goods in order to avoid double-counting.
9. Gross National Product
• Also known as Gross National Income (GNI). Is another indicator of
output.
• GNP is calculated as the sum of GDP and the Net Factor Income Abroad
(NFIA). NFIA, as applied to the Philippines, represents the difference
between the earnings of Filipinos from activities overseas and the earnings
of foreigners in the Philippines.

11. Three Approaches of Measuring GDP:
1. THE EXPENDITURE APPROACH – the sum of the spending on
different final goods and services.
• GDP
+
=
total spending on good 1 + total spending on good 2 + total spending on good 3+ …
total spending on good n
2. THE INCOME APPROACH – the sum of the payments to the different
factors of production.
• GDP
=
wages + interest payment + rents + profits
12. 3. THE VALUE ADDED APPROACH – the sum of the value added of each
firm.
•
• GDP
Value Added – the difference between the sales of the firm and its spending
on goods produced by other firms.
=
value added of firm 1 + value added of firm 2 + value added of firm 3 + … + value
added of firm n

• Value Added = Sales – Purchases from other firms
= 2, 000 – 600
= 1, 400
800
14. • Notice that we will get the same value if we add up on the different sources
of “income.” That is,
Income = wages + rents + interest + profits
= 200 + 200 + 200 + 800
= 1, 400
• Since the income and expenditure approaches are equivalent, it follows that
the expenditure and value added approaches are also equivalent.

16. Using GDP or GNP to Gauge a Nation’s
Economic Health
• GNP at current prices or Nominal GNP – is calculated using the prices
that exist for the year it is computed.
• GNP at constant prices or Real GNP – is calculated by dividing the
nominal GNP by the GNP deflator and multiplying the result by 100. This
overcomes the weakness of nominal GNP by removing the impacts of price
changes.
• GNP deflator – measures the cost of a given bundle of goods in one year relative to
the cost of the same bundle of goods in the base year.
Real GNP = (Nominal GNP/GNP Deflator) x 100

In recent years, economists have recognized that making cross-country
comparisons requires an adjustment to GNP that goes beyond converting its
values to US dollars. The reason is that one dollar spent in one country may not
buy the same quantity of goods in another country. Another way of putting it is
that the price of a commodity in one country is not likely to be the same in
another.
20. • To adjust for price differences across countries, GNP measured at domestic currency is
divided by the so-called purchasing power parity exchange rate (PPP exchange rate)
• The result is called PPP adjusted GNP . This result would then be divided by the
population to get an estimate of PPP adjusted per capita GNP.

21. LIMITATIONS OF GNP
1. The higher GNP estimates tend to be associated with improved standards
of living.
Example: GNP estimates are silent on the costs of achieving higher output.
2. GNP is also an imperfect measure of output.
Imputing- refers to the process of approximating the values of certain activities.
Example: the calculation of payments for owner-occupied housing.
•
This procedure introduces measurement errors because the imputed value might be different from
the actual value.
22. • There are also activities for which markets exist but the transactions are not reported.
Example: Drug-trafficking and prostitution
• There are also situations in which the activities are legal and markets exist but the
transactions are not reported.
Example: Peddling and trading
The underestimation of output resulting from illegal and unreported activities is large.
23. INFLATION- refers to the increase in the general price level(GP)
or prices as a whole.
Two measures of the inflation rate:
1.Headline inflation rate – uses the Consumer Price Index (CPI) as a measure of the general price level. This
is the traditional and most common index of inflation.
Formula:
CPI period t - CPI period t-1
Headline inflation rate =
CPI period t-1
2. Core inflation rate- uses a price index which excludes the prices of commodities that are deemed to be
volatile.
24.
25. UNEMPLOYMENT -
implies that productive
resources are not being fully utilized in the economy.
• A person is considered unemployed if he/she is not a member of the labor
force.
The term labor force refers to people of a certain age (15 years and above in
the case of the Philippines) who are:
a. working or engaged in business, and
b. not working or engaged in business but are actively looking for work.
26. UNEMPLOYMENT RATE- an indicator that
measure the employment situation in our country.
• We calculate the unemployment rate (U) by dividing the number of
unemployed members of the labor force by the total labor force. The result
is then multiplied by 100 so that it can be expressed as a percentage:
Unemployed members of the labor force
U=
Total labor force
