mild inflation is better because in the first place it motivates producers in producing more, since price increase is an incentive to them. secondly , excess demand will be partially regulated in mild inflation coz price increase reduces, hence, prospects of higher inflation minimised.

zero inflation on the other hand demotivates producers coz there are no changes in price levels, this leads to low out put and hence, loss of GDP and consequently unemployment may crop in.

Is near zero level inflation is bad?

Though a Zero inflation is practically very difficult to achieve, very low levels of inflation are actually bad for the economy. Inflation determines the increase in prices of goods and services in a country's economy year on year. A very low or zero inflation means a very low level of growth in prices for goods and services which in turn implies that the economic growth in the country is also very poor. In a growing or flourishing economy the prices of goods and services increase in a steady and consistent manner year on year. This means the country's economy is growing steadily. Inflation rates of around 5-6% are considered ideal for countries. A very low inflation is bad for the economy and at the same time a double digit inflation is also very bad for the economy.


When the real interest rate is less than zero then?

When the real interest rate is less than zero, it indicates that inflation is eroding the purchasing power of money more rapidly than the nominal interest earned on savings or investments. This scenario discourages savings and encourages spending or investment in riskier assets, as holding cash or low-yielding accounts results in a loss of value over time. Consequently, it can stimulate economic activity in the short term, but may also lead to concerns about inflation and financial instability in the long run.
