  • Abstract
    The development of economy is closely related with the inflation rate of the country. Generally the inflation can be measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI). The aim of this paper is using overlapping measure and cumulative measure to measure the inflation. In overall, these two methods are adequate for measuring the inflation. As a result, monthly measure is useful because it believe can give a peifect measure (since its sample is large) and can get rid of or smaller the error. Besides that, the value of the weighted CPI and the unweighted CPI are almost same. As the result, theunweighted of CPI is used to measure the inflation. The result of this two methods are satisfactory.
