As finance and economics students, you have heard in the news that inflation is on the rise. Take a look at the news article that is attached. The disagreement has to do with whether the inflation is permanent or short-term (transitory). In crafting your answers, consider the following crucial theoretical issues (the lack of theory is confusing a lot of journalists and analysts on this topic).
What is inflation? How is it measured? CPI? Core inflation? How is inflation different from the price level. What is hyperinflation? Is the United States going to experience hyperinflation? Explain
present these two charts from FRED showing the price level versus the rate of inflation. How does the US inflation differ from this one in Venezuela
