What Is Inflation?
Inflation is an increase in the average price of goods or services in an economy. Each month, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports on the average level of prices when it releases the Consumer Price Index (CPI). Inflation is measured as the percentage increase in average level of prices over a select period of time.
In a stable economy, an average inflation rate is typically around 2%.
