Yeah. Ensure that you're talking about headline inflation, rather than underlying inflation as it doesn't include volatile items such as oil.

Also, try to discuss about cartels and OPEC which will demonstrate your "real world" knowledge. :)

Your price stability definition could be written as

"As a federal government objective which aims to keep the general increase in price level to an acceptable minimum - 2-3% measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI)"

But pretty good summaries. I like them. :)

If everyone knew the price of oil was corrupted, it would be in their interests to 'fix' the price of oil.
