The correct answer is letter D. Inflation is the general rise in the prices of goods and services over time. It affects the purchasing power of money. When the cost of basic needs like rice and transportation increases, families must adjust their budgets. The Philippines saw inflation spike in 2022 due to oil price hikes and food shortages.
