calculate inflation or the rate of increase in
the general price level over time.

and infrastructure. A higher investment
rate is often associated with greater
economic growth potential.

difference between a country's
exports and imports. A positive trade
balance (surplus) means that exports
exceed imports, which can contribute
to economic growth.
