Abstract

Inflation is one of the most important macroeconomic indicators used to evaluate the stability and performance of a country's economy. This study aims to model and predict Indonesia’s monthly inflation rate using the Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) approach. The dataset consists of monthly inflation observations from January 2010 to December 2025 obtained from Bank Indonesia. The analysis begins with testing the stationarity of the series using the Augmented Dickey–Fuller (ADF) test, followed by model identification through the Autocorrelation Function (ACF) and Partial Autocorrelation Function (PACF) plots. Several candidate models are estimated, including ARIMA (0,1,1), ARIMA (1,1,0), and ARIMA (1,1,1). Model comparison based on the Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) indicates that the ARIMA (0,1,1) model provides the lowest AIC value and is therefore selected as the most appropriate model. The forecasting results suggest that Indonesia’s inflation rate is expected to remain relatively stable at around 3.63% over the next six periods. However, the prediction intervals become wider as the forecasting horizon increases, reflecting growing uncertainty in longer-term predictions.
