Q

Both CPI (Consumer Price Index) and the GDP deflator are
used to measure inflation, but they differ in their scope and
what they measure. The CPI measures the price change of a
basket of goods and services commonly purchased by
consumers, while the GDP deflator reflects the price
changes of all goods and services produced domestically.
