"Inflated" means "artificially high" in general usage. In economics, it refers to the process by which, holding the real value of goods constant, their nominal values increases. This translates into increasing price levels.
Who would be more likely to favor inflation debtors or creditors?
A debtor would favour inflation; the debt would be repaid with money which is worth less than when it was borrowed.
If the inflation premium for a bond goes up the price of the bond?
The price of the bond decreases; the inflation premium would increase the market interest rate, which in bond valuation is located in the denominator, and the coupon payment rate is located in the numerator. When calculating the NPV of future coupon payments, as the denominator or market interest rate + inflation premium increases, the Net Present Value of future coupon payments decreases and the overall value of the bond decreases as well.

Typhoon Haiyan in 2013 caused a scarcity of food and clean water in the Philippines. Electricity also became scarce in parts of the country.
How do you account for inflation when comparing dollar amounts over time?
Accounting for inflation over time requires you to take purchasing power into account, thus specific rates of inflation for certain things can differ from the overall inflation of a society.
If inflation is 3% a year, then $1 this year will only be able to purchase 97 cents worth of goods next year.
So if you have a consistent inflation rate of 3% a year, and want to compare the purchasing power of one dollar from 10 years ago to the current day, then for the first year of inflation, one dollar would drop to 97 cents, and then from there to the next year, 97 cents would only buy 97% of what it could buy the previous year.
Due to this, you cannot simply multiply 3% by the number of years to find the total effect of inflation.
So you would go from $1 to 97 cents one year, and then 97 cents to 94.09 cents of purchasing power over the next year. Then from 94.09 cents to 91.2673 cents the next year.
In order to easily calculate this, you could instead simply take the initial amount of money (lets say $1), and multiply it by (1-r)^n. In this, r is the inflation rate, so that 3% would be 0.03, thus 1-0.03 is 0.97. The variable n is the number of years from year 1.
So if you were to take 1 dollar, and place it into the equation with inflation at 3% a year, you'd find that 1 * (0.97^1) = 97 cents, just like we found up above. 1 * (0.97^2) = 94.09 cents, again as found above.
So $100 dollars in the first year, before any inflation has kicked in, would only be worth $21.80 after 50 years of 3% annual inflation.
How much was 10000 worth in 1926?
$10,000.00 in 1923 had the same buying power as $139,955.62 in 2016.
What is 30 million from 1850 worth today?
To determine the value of $30 million from 1850 in today's dollars, we need to account for inflation over the years. Using historical inflation rates, $30 million in 1850 is roughly equivalent to around $1 billion to $1.2 billion today, depending on the specific inflation calculator or index used. This illustrates the significant impact of inflation over more than a century and a half.
How much would three thousand dollars in 1870 be worth today?
The average I got was "$1,233,616"
In 2009, $3,000.00 from 1870 is worth:
$50,900.00using the Consumer Price Index
$47,800.00using the GDP deflator
$362,000.00using the unskilled wage
$694,000.00using the Production Worker Compensation
$717,000.00using the nominal GDP per capita
$5,530,000.00using the relative share of GDP
How are departmental rates calculated?
Departmental rates are calculated by dividing the weighted wage rate for the department by the number of employees.
What has been adjusted to remove inflation is called nominal GDP?
A gross domestic product (GDP) value that is at face value and has not been adjusted in any way, for inflation or any other reason, is known as a "nominal GDP." It is sometimes also called a "current dollar GDP."
An amount of money to be received in the future is worth less today than the stated amount?
Since we can reasonably expect that the process of inflation will continue, it follows that dollars in some future year will be worth less than the same number of dollars are worth today.
What is the impact based on Inventory turnover?
Inventory turnover is the standard at which product inventory is acquired or made and further sold within a year. An assessment of all inventory-related business factors will have an impact on inventory turnover.
Will the US emerge stronger than before?
While it is hard to predict the future, periods of recession have historically been followed by rapid recovery. This question is murky though, because one person's definition of "stronger" may be different from another's. For instance, one person might consider America "stronger" if it had universal health care, whereas another would see that as a massive weakness.
Will expansion of world trade in the future be similar to that in past?
of course no ,the expansion in the past is merely the expansion of capital or markets, but today it's more than the expansion of culture and value system.
Is the Federal Reserve responsible for determining the inflation rate and the unemployment rate?
The Federal Reserve does not set the inflation or unemployment rates. These rates are naturally fluctuating based on market activities. Typically, as inflation rises, unemployment decreases and vice versa (except in the case of stagflation in 1970's). The Federal Reserve DOES, however, adjust interest rates and various other rates to control the money supply in order to combat unemployment and inflation. See the "Money Supply Theory."
