Out of all the choices given, consumers usually want to see the income rise with inflation. If the income rises also, they will be able to afford things like they did before. The correct answer is A.

I believe the answer is: Income

With the rise of inflation, average prices for products would also increases.
If this do not accompanied by appropriate increases in income, this create a situation where their purchasing power become weakened since they now had to obtain less products for the same amount of money.
