Inflation rate
In economics, the inflation rate is the rate of increase of the average price level (a measure of inflation), usually some form of consumer price index. Alternatively, the inflation rate is the rate of decrease in the purchasing power of money. This is sometimes expressed as an "annualized" number, even if the period measured is less than a year.
