This paper reviews theory and evidence of the welfare effects of inflation from a costbenefit perspective. Basic models … and selected empirical results are discussed. Historically, in assessing the welfare effects of inflation, the distortion … of money demand played a prominent role. More recently, interactions of inflation and taxation came into focus. Growth …
