Explanation:

Inflation is the general reduction in the value of a currency's purchasing power.  It happens when more money is used to buy the same quantity of a good or service than was purchased previously. A currency's purchasing power is the value of the currency in terms of the goods or services that it can buy.  Three factors reduce the purchasing power of a currency.  They are government regulations, inflation, and disasters.  On the other hand, deflation and technological innovations increase the currency's purchasing power.
