Frequently asked
How is this calculated?
Future cost: amount × (1 + rate)^years. Past value: amount ÷ (1 + rate)^years. The same compounding relationship, applied in each direction.
What inflation rate should I use?
There's no single right answer. A long-run average for general consumer prices is a reasonable starting point, but actual inflation varies by year and by what you're buying.
