Annual Inflation Rate is the rate of inflation calculated annually that is on an yearly basis. Inflation is a condition which is harmful for any economy. The price rises from the normal level with the increase in the supply of money and the decline in the supply of goods. Though the the demand of goods and services increase, the supply of the required products do not increase and hence are unable to match the demand of the mass. The prices are very high and the supply of goods is slashed down to a much lower level. The annual inflation rate is calculated by taking into account the average inflation rate of each month. The change in the prices of goods take place on a daily basis and that is compiled into a monthly record which is finally required in preparing the annual report.
