Period inflation refers to the increase in prices of goods and services over a specific period, typically measured annually. It reflects the rate at which the general price level rises, eroding purchasing power. Economists track period inflation using various indexes, such as the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and the Producer Price Index (PPI), to assess economic health and inform policy decisions. High period inflation can lead to decreased consumer spending and economic instability.
