Q1 2020 Earnings = 10,000; debt owed = 2000. 2021, Earnings 11,000 (10% inflation) No amount of debt paid off so you still owe 2000. Your earnings make you richer yet teh amouny owing stay the sams. If you had 5,000 in the to spend this year, but didn't spend it until next, your 5000 would buy fewer goods if they suffered price inflation. Q2 1 Money is removed from the economy - people have less to spend 2 The government spends on jobs etc injecting more spending power into the economy. Q3 1 - it depends who dies.
