Abstract

This study aims to analyze and measure the relationship between Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and inflation rates in the Libyan economy during the period (2000–2022), using a simple linear regression model. GDP is the independent variable, and the inflation rate is the dependent variable.

Using annual data of 23 observations, the study finds a positive and statistically significant relationship between GDP and inflation. The regression coefficient is 0.313, and the coefficient of determination (R²) is 0.44. F
and T-tests confirm the model’s significance at 5%. The findings align with aggregate demand theory, which states that an increase in GDP raises aggregate demand, leading to higher price levels and inflation.
