G11 Inflation Quiz Materials

Inflation quiz article and questions.

There was a question whether the format and questions of the quiz correspond to the IBDP economics curriculum.
Yes, they do: the quiz and questions come directly from supplement materials to our class textbook (Welker's IBDP Economics book).
