The statistic shows the inflation rate in Australia from 1987 to 2023, with projections up until 2030. The inflation rate is calculated using the price increase of a defined product basket. This product basket contains products and services, on which the average consumer spends money throughout the year. They include expenses for groceries, clothes, rent, power, telecommunications, recreational activities and raw materials (e.g. gas, oil), as well as federal fees and taxes. In 2023, the average inflation rate in Australia was at about 5.62 percent compared to the previous year. Australia's economy Australia has one of the world’s largest economies and is a significant global importer and exporter. It is also labeled as one of the G20 countries, also known as the Group of Twenty, which consists of 20 major economies around the globe. The Australian economy is highly dependent on its mining sector as well as its agricultural sector in order to grow, and it exports the majority of these goods to eastern Asian countries, most prominently China. Large quantities of exports have helped Australia maintain a stable economy and furthered economic expansion, despite being affected by several economic obstacles. Australia’s GDP has seen a significant increase over the past decade, more than doubling its value, and experienced a rather quick recovery from the 2008 financial crisis, which indicates that the country experienced economic growth as well as higher productivity. One of the primary reasons is the further development of the nation’s mining industry coupled with the expansion and success of many Australian mining companies.

This report analyses the value of the consumer price index (CPI). The CPI measures the price of a basket of goods consumed by the average Australian, and is the standard measure of the rate of inflation in Australia. Indexes are calculated for each of the capital cities and are then combined as a weighted average to obtain a nationwide value. This report uses the average quarterly value of the index over each financial year. The data for this report is sourced from the Australian Bureau of Statistics and is measured in points, with a base of 100.0 points in 2011-12.

In 2023, agriculture contributed around 2.57 percent to the GDP of Australia, 27.65 percent came from industry, and 63.57 percent from the services sector. The same year, the Australian inflation rate, another important key indicator for its economic situation, amounted to 2.82 percent. Why is the inflation rate important?Inflation is the steady increase in price levels for consumer goods and services during a certain timespan. The European Central Bank considers a steady inflation rate of two percent a year beneficial for a stable economy – otherwise a country risks economic hardship. In the worst case, a country can experience either hyperinflation (like Venezuela), which is the rapid increase of prices to a point of economic collapse, or deflation, which is the decrease of prices and devaluation of money that can also lead to economic collapse. Up and down under Australia’s inflation has been clawing itself out of a slump in 2016, when it unceremoniously dropped to 1.25 percent due to falling petrol costs and oil prices. The following year, it recovered instantaneously and soared back to just under two percent, and forecasts see it reaching 2.52 percent by 2021. Australians don’t seem too worried about this outlier, and rightly so, since Australia’s economy is still one of the biggest in the Asia-Pacific region and worldwide.
