THE CALCULATION

How it works

Future equivalent cost = amount × (1 + inflation) ^ years. Purchasing power = amount ÷ (1 + inflation) ^ years.

  1. Choose the product, units or currency direction where applicable.
  2. Enter your amounts and assumptions. A reference price is dated; a manual value is your own input.
  3. Review the result and breakdown together with the limitations.
