Beban Inflasi
Menurunnya Daya beli? Pendapat yang keliru akan inflasi
*Mengapa inflasi itu buruk? * Inflasi menyebabkan berkurangnya daya beli uang * Menyebabkan seolah-olah standar hidup menurun
Sebetulnya, saat harga barang dan jasa naik maka pembeli membayar lebih untuk apa yang dia beli sedangkan para penjual menerima pendapatan yang lebih dari para pembeli , hal ini membuktikan bahwa pendapatan dan harga naik secara seimbang sehingga inflasi sebetulnya tidak menyebabkan berkurangnya daya beli masyarakat.

Shoeleather cost
*Shoeleather cost adalah sumber daya yang terbuang saat inflasi mendorong orang-orang untuk mengurangi jumlah uang yang mereka pegang.
Inflasi serupa dengan pajak yg dikenakan kepada pemegang uang, seperti pajak lainnya, pajak yg disebabkan oleh inflasi menyebabkan kerugian karena orang-orang membuang-buang sumber daya untuk menghindarinya. Biaya yang dikeluarkan untuk mengurangi jumlah uang yang dipegang disebut shoeleather cost. Shoeleather cost memang terlihat sepele, tetapi beban ini semakin besar di negara-negara yang mengalami Hyperinflation.
Menu Cost
Sebagian besar perusahaan tidak mengubah harga dari produk-produknya setiap hari, harga produk bias diumumkan setiap seminggu, sebulan, bahkan setahun. Perusahaan tidak sering mengubah harga karena ada biaya yang terjadi sewaktu dilakukannya perubahan harga. Biaya yang timbul karena penyesuaian/pengubahan harga disebut dengan Menu Cost.

Menu Cost dapat berupa:
- biaya menetapkan harga
-biaya mencetak daftar harga baru
- biaya mengirim daftar harga kepada distributor dan konsumen
-biaya promosi harga baru
-biaya menangani respon konsumen akan perubahan yang terjadi.

Inflasi menyebabkan meningkatnya Menu Cost, saat Hyperinflation terjadi maka perusahhan harus mengganti harga produknya untuk menyesuaikan harga barang lain yg ada di dalam

    2. Summary of Article. This article highlighted the issue of bad weather (“Land” – a Factor of Production) and how it affected the basic commodities needs of the people (consumers). Bakeries raise prices due to the increase in cost of wheat and related commodities. This rise was due to the global shortage of wheat because of bad weather in wheat producing countries and the imposition of bans on exports through government interventions. The price of flour has risen from S$29 to S$32 per 25kg in just 2 months. Rise in prices of soya beans and sugar led to further increase in prices of flour-based products. This burden is being transferred to the consumers. An increase in price of 5% to 10% is seen in flour-based products for both local and export sales. If bad weather continues, the increase in prices of these weather dependent crops will continue to rise. Consumers will have to spend more or choose other alternatives since the next price review will only be done in 6 months’ time.…

    The Consumer Price Index (CPI) based annual inflation rate that had earlier shown rising trend since the FY 2005/06 and attained highest point of 12.6 percent in the FY 2008/09 has come down in the last two fiscal years. Although, inflation rate had stood below 5.0 percent for about half a decade prior to the FY 2005/06. Both the internal and external causes have influenced the rise in inflation rate in the past few years. Frequent closures, strikes, load-shedding and political instability that have adverse impact on productive activities and supply situation have been the dominant internal factors, while the price hike in petroleum products and impact of Indian inflation are the major external factors. Additional causes of the apparent impact of the Indian inflation on Nepalese economy can be attributed mainly to the open boarder between these two countries, Nepal's foreign exchange rate pegged with Indian currency, and almost about two-thirds of the trade with India. Though inflation seems contained in the last few months, it is still not that easy to lessen inflationary pressure until positive impact is visible on both the structural and external factors necessary for maintaining the inflation rate at the minimum.…
