Abstract

One of the most well-known economic problems is the contentious topic of inflation following
the Covid-19 pandemic. Several people expressed their opinions when the cost of living in the
Philippines suddenly rose so sharply above that of other countries. The elderly, parents,
employers, and students in Grade 12 who study Humanities and Social Sciences suffer from
the consequences of inflation on a daily basis in the Philippines. This challenge may have a
variety of detrimental impacts on students, such as increases in the cost of tuition, necessities,
food, and even transportation. Several students decided to budget their money wisely in order
to continue attending their regular classes at school as a result of inflation.


The results also showed the impact of the inflation rate on the price of school supplies in terms
of basic needs that are always encountered by the students, with an overall mean is 3.16 as

Financial with weighted mean is 2.85 as Agree. For the challenges that affect the inflation rate
in terms of food prices, the weighted mean is 3.22.
