Conclusion
Inflation is considered to be bad, deflation worse but stagflation is said to be the worst situation for an economy.
It is believed that a certain level of inflation acts as a tonic for the economy as it helps in the growth of a nation’s GDP.
E.g. A wage cut of 2% during Zero Inflation is not liked by the employees but they prefer a wage hike of 3% when the Inflation is at 5%.
