Continuous Increase in Prices of diesel, goods, and services
Inflation is a process of continuous increase in the general price level of goods and services; it’s usually measured as the annual percent change in a cost-of-living index, but can also be measured by changes in individual prices or even changes in taxes.
What may cause inflation?
There are a variety of different reasons that may cause inflation, such as devaluation of currency, taxes, or demand for certain goods. Inflation may also be a sign that the economy is struggling or has been stagnant for too long. Other reason include:

- Increment in the money supply
- Increases in government spending
The Rise of Inflation in 2021
The rise of inflation has been steady over the past year, with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) currently at 6.2% for all items. This means that if your income stays constant, you need to spend 6.2% more money every year just to maintain your standard of living. That’s why it’s so important for business owners to have some kind of inflation protection through tax and business planning.
Your Tax Burden Increases with Inflation
Taxes haven’t increased as quickly as inflation, but now it’s possible to pay more in taxes than you used to; this is because the IRS calculates taxes based on income and inflation.

What's a helpful solution for business owners to overcome inflation?
When you manage your taxes wisely, taxes pay for themselves; It’s important to stay ahead by making sure you’re getting all the deductions and credits possible.
