    The answer is: Inflation rate

    Explanation:

    Inflation rate measures the rate at which the average prices in an economy increases over time.

    As the general level of prices rise in an economy, a unit of currency buys less than it did before. For example, 100 years ago you could buy a new car for less than $300.
