通货膨胀Inflation

小树发现面包贵了。一次涨价就叫通胀吗?先把购物篮摆出来。Mia notices bread is more expensive. Is one price increase inflation? Start by unpacking a shopping basket.

第 1 步:看整体价格水平Step 1: Look at the overall price level

单件商品能代表所有消费吗?Can one item represent all spending?

Look at the overall price level
通胀指总体价格水平上涨。单件商品涨价可能只是局部变化。价格指数观察一篮子商品和服务。不同项目按支出比重加权。Inflation is a rise in the overall price level. One item’s increase may be a local change. A price index tracks a basket of goods and services, weighted by spending shares.

第 2 步:比较同一篮子的成本Step 2: Compare the same basket

怎样算出变化的百分比?How do we calculate the percentage change?

Compare the same basket
旧篮子成本一百,新成本一百零五。涨幅是五除以一百,即百分之五。课堂先固定购买数量。现实指数还会更新权重和处理品质变化。A basket rises from 100 to 105. The increase is 5 divided by 100, or 5%. Our lesson fixes quantities. Real indexes also update weights and handle quality changes.

第 3 步:金额与购买力分开看Step 3: Separate money from purchasing power

工资涨了,就一定买得更多吗?Does higher pay always buy more?

Separate money from purchasing power
工资涨幅低于物价时,购买力可能下降。通胀可以来自需求或供给变化。不同家庭的购物篮不同。一个平均数不能代表每个人的感受。If pay grows less than prices, purchasing power may fall. Demand or supply changes can contribute to inflation. Households buy different baskets. One average cannot describe everyone’s experience.

固定篮子含两个面包、两个水果。基期单价二与三,总价十。变化率=新成本除以十减一。The fixed basket has 2 loaves and 2 fruit. Base prices 2 and 3 give cost 10. Change = new cost / 10 − 1.

一句话记住它:Remember it: 通胀看总体价格,生活感受还取决于收入和购物篮。Inflation tracks overall prices; lived effects depend on income and the shopping basket.
通胀指总体价格水平上涨。Inflation is a rise in the overall price level.旧篮子成本一百,新成本一百零五。A basket rises from 100 to 105.工资涨幅低于物价时,购买力可能下降。If pay grows less than prices, purchasing power may fall.
