About the JournalAbstract
This econometric analysis examines the impact of inflation trends on household purchasing power in Addis Ababa between 2020 and 2025. Using consumer price index data and household expenditure surveys, the research finds that food price inflation has disproportionately affected lower-income households, exacerbating urban poverty. Policy measures for inflation control and social protection are suggested.
