This assignment discusses the causes and effects of demand-pull and cost-push inflation in an economy. It explains how demand-pull inflation occurs when aggregate demand exceeds aggregate supply, leading to economic growth and higher prices. On the other hand, cost-push inflation occurs when firms' productivity decreases, resulting in higher production costs and lower supply. The assignment also explores the causes of demand-pull and cost-push inflation, such as increased consumer income and taxes. Additionally, it examines the impact of factors like improved marketing skills, personal income tax, exports, and destruction of capital stock on economic activity and prices. Finally, it discusses the advantages and disadvantages of using the Consumer Price Index (CPI) to measure prices and the effects of inflation on different parties in an economy.
