Categories:

1. Shoe leather cost = costs of time and efforts spent on trying to negate the effects of inflation.  People incur this cost by holding less cash while others make additional trips to the bank.

2. Money illusion costs = cost of calculating and comparing the rising costs triggered by inflation can cause changes in the nominal price to be mistaken for changes in the real price.

3. Menu costs = During inflation, more time and cost are incurred to effect the un-ending price changes.

4. Wealth redistribution costs: In trying to redistribute wealth, there are some associated costs and unintended leakages.

5. Price confusion costs: During inflation, the changes made in prices may not be determined as resulting from either inflation or increased demand.
