Bekijk hoe de waarde van geld in de loop van de tijd is veranderd.
Inflation is the 'invisible tax' that reduces the purchasing power of your money over time. As prices for goods and services rise, each dollar, euro, or pound you own buys a smaller percentage of a product. Understanding this concept is vital for long-term saving and retirement planning; $1,000 today will not have the same value in 20 years. Our Inflation Calculator helps you project this change, showing you what a specific amount of money will be 'worth' in the future based on a projected annual inflation rate.
Hoe het werkt
The tool uses the compound interest formula to calculate the future cost of an item. It multiplies the current amount by (1 + inflation rate) raised to the power of the number of years.
Berekeningsformule
Future Value = Present Value × (1 + Rate)^Years
Calculation Examples
1. **Long Term**: $100 today at 3% inflation will require **$180.61** in 20 years to have the same buying power.
2. **Recent Trends**: $1,000 at a high 7% inflation rate becomes **$1,402** in just 5 years.
