Deflation
• In economics, deflation is a decrease in the general price
level of goods and services.
• Deflation occurs when the inflation rate falls below zero percent, resulting
in an increase in the real value of money – a negative inflation rate.
• Inflation reduces the real value of money over time, conversely, deflation
increases the real value of money. Money refers to the functional currency
(mostly unstable monetary unit of account) in a national or regional
economy.
Hyperinflation
• In economics, hyperinflation is inflation that is very high or "out of
control", a condition in which prices increase rapidly as a currency
loses its value.
