How would you exactly answer this?

I just got asked in an interview: Considering the current economic landscape, if you were the CFO of a company, how would you manage inflation in your daily operations?

I had think quick and improvise, but I think I did it fine. I just want to know if I missed important points.

Hahaha 100%. Pass that shit to the consumer, cut costs, and eliminate any semblance of customer service.

That’s an A+ answer.
