Cost-push inflation

Inflation caused by rising prices, usually from increased raw material or labor costs that push up the costs of production. Related: Demand-pull inflation.

Cost-Push Inflation

Inflation caused by rising costs of production. For example, if the price of a barrel of oil rises significantly, this could cause fuel prices to increase which, in turn, increases costs for transportation of food, tools, and other goods, which can cause some level of inflation across an economy. Cost-push inflation contrasts with demand-pull inflation, which is caused by a rise in demand on the part of consumers.

cost-push inflation

Rising consumer prices caused by businesses passing along increases in their own costs for labor and materials. Cost-push inflation does not necessarily result in rising corporate profits because businesses may be unable to pass through all of their cost increases. Compare demand-pull inflation.
