THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKROUND

Rationale of the Study:

Inflation is the percentage of change in price of goods and services (such as

food and bus passes).Experts look at a number of key items that we buy on a

regular basis (such as bread) and work out the overall cost increase.

One of the realities that each and every one has to face is the ever changing

value of currency and the price of consumer goods. Inflation results, according

to the BusinessDictionary.com, from a Cost-push inflation, wherein wage

increases cause business to raise prices to cover for costs; or from a Demand-

pull inflation which is due to the increase of consumer demand by reason of

greater availability of credit; or finally through Monetary inflation caused by an

increase in the number of Money in circulation, resulting to a decrease in the

value of money.

One country in particular which have experienced high and unstable inflation

rates is the Republic of the Philippines. While other countries have gradual

inflation or even low or no inflation, the Philippines have experienced

high inflation rates, and it is expected last year that it will be capped by a 4.17%

increase in 2018.

But instead, The Philippines' annual inflation rate came in at 6.7 percent in

October of 2018, unchanged from the previous month but higher than market

expectations of 6.5 percent. A faster rise in cost of housing and transport offset

a slight slowdown in prices of food. The latest reading remained at its highest

since February 2009. On a monthly basis, consumer prices went up 0.3 percent,

after a 0.8 percent rise in September. Inflation Rate in Philippines averaged 8.40

percent from 1958 until 2018, reaching an all time high of 62.80 percent in

September of 1984 and a record low of -2.10 percent in January of 1959.

Definition of Terms:

 Inflation:

In economics, inflation is a sustained increase in the price level of goods

and services in an economy over a period of time. When the price level

rises, each unit of currency buys fewer goods and services; consequently,

inflation reflects a reduction in the purchasing power per unit of money –

a loss of real value in the medium of exchange and unit of account within

the economy. A chief measure of price inflation is the inflation rate, the

annualized percentage change in a general price index, usually the

consumer price index, over time. The opposite of inflation is deflation

(negative inflation rate).

(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inflation)

 Perception:

Noun. The ability to see, hear, or become aware of something through

the senses; A way of regarding, understanding, or interpreting something;

a mental impression; Intuitive understanding and insight.

 GAS:

General Academic Strand.

Inflationary Psychology

DEFINITION of 'Inflationary Psychology'

Inflationary psychology is a state of mind that leads consumers to spend more

quickly than they otherwise would in the belief that prices are rising. Inflationary

psychology becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy, because as consumers spend more

and save less, the velocity of money increases, further boosting inflation and

contributing to inflationary psychology. Central banks such as the Federal

9|Page
University of Luzon
Senior High School
Perez Boulevard, Dagupan City, Pangasinan
“Perception of Grade 12 – GAS Senior High School Students
of University of Luzon on Inflation Rate in the Philippines”

Reserve are always vigilant about the development of inflationary psychology,

having successfully combated high inflation that was rampant in the 1970s and

1980s. Inflationary psychology can have negative effects on the economy, as the

resultant inflation spike may led a nation’s central bank to raise interest rates

in an attempt to put the brakes on the economy.

'Inflationary Psychology'

Inflationary psychology, if unchecked, can also lead to bubbles in asset prices in

due course. Most consumers will spend their money on a product immediately if

they think its price is going to increase shortly. The rationale for this decision is

that consumers believe they can save some money by buying the product now

rather than later.

Inflationary psychology was evident in the U.S. housing market in the first

decade of this millennium. As house prices went up year after year, investors

became conditioned to believe that “house prices always go up.” This led millions

of Americans to jump into the real estate market either for ownership or

speculation, which greatly reduced the available stock of housing and drove up

prices sharply. This in turn attracted more homeowners and speculators to the

U.S. real estate market, with the feeding frenzy only abating with the onset in

2007 of the worst financial crisis and housing correction since the 1930s

Depression.

Inflationary psychology in the broad economy can be gauged by such measures

as the consumer price index (CPI) and bond yields, which would spike up if

inflation is expected to rise. The effect of inflationary psychology is different on

various assets. For example, gold and commodities may rise in price since they

are perceived as inflation hedges. Fixed income instruments would decline in

price because of the prospect of higher interest rates to combat inflation. The

effect on stocks is mixed but with a lower bias. This is because the impact of

potentially higher rates is much greater than the positive effect on earnings by

companies that have the pricing power to increase prices in an inflationary

environment.

Inflation steady at 6.7% in October 2018

(3rd UPDATE) The latest figure reinforces the projections of the Bangko Sentral

ng Pilipinas and the Department of Finance that inflation is beginning to taper

off.

SPOILER INFLATION. Elevated prices of goods in 2018 resulted in slower

economic growth.

MANILA, Philippines (3rd UPDATE) – Inflation or the increase in the prices of

goods remained steady in October at 6.7%, the Philippine Statistics Authority

(PSA) announced on Tuesday, November 6.

The latest figure is the same as in September. (READ: Poorest Filipinos feel

inflation at 8% in August 2018)

Prices of food and non-alcoholic beverages were hardly unchanged at 9.4% from

September's 9.7%. Food prices take the biggest slice in the computation for the

overall inflation figure.

The alcoholic beverages and tobacco segment as also stable at 21.6% from

21.8%.

Mixed movements in the annual growth of prices were posted among the

commodity groups. Higher annual increases were observed in the indices of the

following commodity groups: housing, water, electricity, gas, and other fuels -

4.8%; furnishing, household equipment, and routine maintenance of the house

- 3.7%; health - 4.3%; transport - 8.8%; recreation and culture - 3.1%; restaurant

and miscellaneous goods and services - 4.2%

Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) economists earlier projected inflation to have

peaked during September and to fall within 6.2% to 7% in October. Meanwhile,

the Department of Finance (DOF) forecast it to be at 6.5% in October.

Both the BSP and the DOF attributed their optimistic outlooks to stabilizing rice,

power, and oil prices.

Rice prices registered 10.7% in October, similar to September's 10.4%. However,

the National Capital Region reported a slowdown of 8.2% from 9%.

Philippines' high inflation also good, says Bangko Sentral official

Felipe Medalla says the high inflation figure reflects the elevated prices of

cigarettes and sugary drinks, which were planned by the government under the

TRAIN law

Bangko Sentral raises inflation forecast for 2018, 2019

The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas sees 2018 full-year inflation hitting 4.9% and

2019 average inflation at 3.7%

BSP Governor Nestor Espenilla Jr said the latest data support "the view that

inflation pressures are finally moderating" and possibly indicate that prices will

return to the target range in 2019.

"The start of the harvest season for rice and improved weather conditions have

contributed to some downward price pressures on rice prices. In addition, the

implementation of non-monetary measures is also expected to result in a

deceleration in food prices," added the BSP in a separate statement on Tuesday.

"The BSP will continue to monitor the evolution of expectations and further

second-round effects ahead of the November 2018 policy meeting."

Economic managers now aim for inflation to settle between 3% and 4% next year.

Regional inflation

But not all regions felt prices stabilizing in October.

Regions affected by Typhoon Ompong (Mangkhut) registered high inflation rates.

Mimaropa (9% from 7.3%) and Cagayan Valley (8% from 7.6%) experienced

higher inflation.

Inflation rates of the Cordillera Administrative Region (5.2% from 5%), Caraga

(6.2% from 6.1%), and Western Visayas (7.7% from 7.6%) also inched up.

The continuous rise in the prices of goods has led to a downgrade in the

projections of various think tanks and multilateral lenders for the country's gross

domestic product (GDP).

The World Bank cut its GDP outlook for 2018 to 6.5% from 6.7%, while the Asian

Development Bank (ADB) slashed it to 6.4% from 6.8%.

GDP for the 2nd quarter stood at a disappointing 6%, which prompted economic

managers to cut their target to 6.5-6.9% from the previous 7-8%.

The PSA is set to announce the GDP figure for the 3rd quarter on Thursday,

November 8.

Stubbornly high inflation for the year also prompted the BSP to hike interest

rates 4 times, bringing the overnight reverse repurchase rate to 4.5% to manage

inflation expectations and guard the currency from speculative attacks. –

Research Design

Research Method Used:

Quantitative methods emphasize objective measurements and the statistical,

mathematical, or numerical analysis of data collected through polls,

questionnaires, and surveys, or by manipulating pre-existing statistical data

using computational techniques. Quantitative research focuses on gathering

numerical data and generalizing it across groups of people or to explain a

particular phenomenon.

(Babbie, Earl R. The Practice of Social Research. 12th ed. Belmont, CA:

Wadsworth Cengage, 2010; Muijs, Daniel. Doing Quantitative Research in

Education with SPSS. 2nd edition. London: SAGE Publications, 2010)

Our goal in conducting this quantitative research study is to determine the

relationship between one thing within a population. Quantitative research

designs that we did use is a descriptive method a subjects usually measured

once. A descriptive study establishes only associations between variables.

Quantitative research deals in numbers, logic, and an objective stance.

Quantitative research focuses on numeric and unchanging data and detailed,

convergent reasoning rather than divergent reasoning [i.e., the generation of a

variety of ideas about a research problem in a spontaneous, free-flowing

manner].

Locale of the Study:

This Research Study is conducted inside the premises of University of Luzon

school, Perez Boulevard, Dagupan City Pangasinan, Philippines at the Education

Department specifically 4th floor level of the 2nd building of the edifice at room

412 of Grade 12 – GAS Senior high School Students. We conduct this study

within the month of October to November 2018.

Recommendation:

The recommended tips on how inflation rate be decreased:

Here are some trivial yet useful ways for students to beat inflation.

1. Cut spending - It may not seem ideal but you will have to cut spending on

those things that you would class as a treat

2. Buy in bulk - If you know that you eat a lot of something everyday then

why not buy in bulk before prices rise.

3. Saving - The saving rates may be lower than inflation but if you put money

into a savings account then you will be loosing less than if you don't. It

has the least risk and a safe return.

4. Look out for student discounts - If you use sites like ours to get the

best student discounts then you will benefit from saving money on those

must have purchases.

5. In addition to that, we also recommend that they should be a budgeting

planning to help these youths know how to budget wisely with the help of

their Parents and Advisers. Catalyst projects like seminars can also be a

good idea to implement soon.
