This document analyzes monthly inflation rate data from Ghana between July 1991 and December 2009. It finds that inflation in Ghana has been volatile, influenced by factors such as increases in money supply, exchange rate depreciation, and commodity price fluctuations. In 2007, Ghana adopted an inflation targeting monetary policy with the goal of reducing inflation below 10%, though global price increases caused inflation to rise above this level in 2008-2009. The document aims to model and forecast future inflation rates in Ghana using SARIMA techniques.
