In Troy Segal's Investopedia webpage, he thoroughly explores several topics along with the question of whether inflation benefits lenders or borrowers. In his article, he defines and explains what inflation is, and its links with the money supply, and what factors affect said money supply. He then describes how inflation can actually help both borrowers and lenders. Borrowers in how it allows debtors to "pay lenders back with money worth less than it was when they originally borrowed it," and lenders to some extent in how it encourages more borrowing (see previous quote) and can make them more interest (because "10% interest on $1,600 is more than 10% interest on $1,500") but can hurt them anyway since they could end up being paid money that is worth less than what they loaned. Finally, he ends with several FAQs about inflation, such as who benefits from inflation, how it works, and what causes inflation.
