Inflation is the rate at which the general level of prices for goods and services rises, eroding purchasing power. It is measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI).
Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is the total monetary value of all finished goods and services produced within a country's borders in a specific time period, indicating economic performance.
A calendar-adjusted basis accounts for variations in the number of days in a month or year, providing a more accurate comparison of economic data across different time periods.
