Description:

Inflation, exchange rates, business cycles, income tax, fiscal policy … one is bombarded with these terms every day – by newspapers, the radio, TV and the Internet – but what do they actually mean? And how do they impact on ordinary people? In this thoroughly updated edition of Everyone’s Guide to the South African Economy, all these issues – and more – are addressed. The book clearly explains and evaluates a wide range of economic occurrences – from the budget and the rand/dollar exchange rate, to the balance of payments and the role of the South African Reserve Bank. Avoiding the specialised jargon of economists and bankers, the book clearly explains the economic forces that subtly dictate the day-to-day existence of ordinary people. This is essential reading for every South African consumer and taxpayer.
