Ziyini izimbangela eziyinhloko zokwehla kwamandla emali?
Ezomnotho, ukwehla kwamandla emali (inflation) isilinganiso sokukhula kwentengo yezimpahla namasevisi okhethweni oluthile lwezinto. Ngokwesibonelo, izinto ezisetshenziswa umkhaya ovamile zifakwa kuyi-Consumer Price Index, kuyilapho izinto ezithengwa abakhiqizi basekhaya zifakwa kuyi-Producer Price Index. Izimbangela ezenza kube nezinguquko emazingeni entengo ajwayelekile zingabangelwa izizathu ezimbili eziyinhloko. Okokuqala, izinguquko ekufunweni kwangempela nokunikezwa kwezimpahla nezinsizakalo ziyokwenyusa noma zehlise amanani. Amanani aphakeme ayokhuthaza abahlinzeki ukuba bandise ukunikezwa futhi banciphise ukufunwa kwabathengi okubuyisela ukulinganisela kwemakethe. Okwesibili, izinguquko ekuhlinzekweni kwemali - okusho ukuthi inani lemali eshintshashintshayo, imali ebhange, nezinye izinto ezisetshenziswayo zemali - kungaholela ekwenyukeni kwamandla emali. Lapho ibhange eliphakathi lezwe linquma ukwandisa imali eningi ngokusebenzisa izinqubomgomo zokunciphisa imali, inani lemali etholakalayo yokuthenga nokuthengisa inani elifanayo lezimpahla nezinsizakalo liyakhula. Uma izinga lokushintshaniswa kwemali emnothweni lingaguquki (okungukuthi ijubane lemali lihlala lingaguquki) khona-ke ukunikezwa kwemali okuphezulu kuzoholela kumanani aphezulu ngoba kunemali eningi yokuthengiselana ngenani elifanayo lezimpahla nezinsizakalo emnothweni.
