Key Concepts

Inflation

Inflation measures the percentage change in the price level of goods and services over time. It indicates how rapidly prices are rising and affects the purchasing power of money in an economy.

Nominal Exchange Rate

The nominal exchange rate is the current rate at which one currency can be exchanged for another. It reflects the market value of one currency in terms of another, without accounting for differences in price levels between countries.

Real Exchange Rate

The real exchange rate adjusts the nominal exchange rate for differences in relative price levels or inflation rates between countries. It reflects the true purchasing power of a currency in one country relative to that in another, indicating how many goods and services can be exchanged across countries.

Purchasing Power Parity

Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) is an economic theory that compares the relative value of currencies by taking into account the cost of a similar basket of goods in different countries. It serves as a basis for understanding the equilibrium value of currencies in relation to one another after adjusting for inflation.
