    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welfare_cost_of_inflation

    [1] [2] This approach measures the welfare cost by computing the appropriate area under the money demand curve. Fischer (1981) and Lucas (1981), find the cost of inflation to be low. [ 3 ] Fischer computes the deadweight loss generated by an increase in inflation from zero to 10 percent as just 0.3 percent of GDP using the monetary base as the ...

This reflects the fact that consumers would have been willing to buy a single unit of the good at a price higher than the equilibrium price, a second ...

  9. Monopsony - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monopsony

    This is a net social loss and is called deadweight loss. It is a measure of the market failure caused by monopsony power, through a wasteful misallocation of resources. As the diagram suggests, the size of both effects increases with the difference between the marginal revenue product MRP and the market wage determined on the supply curve S ...
