In other words‚ people find themselves with more money than they need. * Some people will use the extra money to buy more goods and services. This causes the money price of goods P to increase‚ and the goods price of money

Meanwhile‚ a comparative advantage is when a country can supply products more efficiently and at a lower cost than it can produce other items. South Africa has an absolute advantage because of its diamonds. The United States

When inflation is high‚ people increasingly fear that this will decrease their future purchasing power and their standard of living. Uncertainty about where prices of goods and services will be in the future makes it more difficult for people to make good economic decisions. That uncertainty is increased when prices are rising‚ since in these circumstances inflation is rarely stable and predictable. High inflation encourages approximate investments at the expense of more productive investments. It
