Inflation Calculator — Future Value of Money

Inflation slowly erodes what money can buy. Enter an amount and an expected inflation rate to see what the same basket of goods will cost in the future — and what today's money will really be worth.

Inflation Calculator

What money is worth in the future

Future cost of the same things1,343.92
Future buying power of this amount744.09
Total price rise34.4%

它是如何运作的

  • Future cost = amount × (1 + inflation)^years.
  • Future buying power = amount ÷ (1 + inflation)^years.
  • Many central banks, including the ECB and the Federal Reserve, target 2% inflation.
  • Savings must earn more than inflation to grow in real terms.

Worked example: 1,000 at 3% for 10 years

  1. 11.03^10 ≈ 1.344.
  2. 2Future cost: 1,000 × 1.344 = 1,344.
  3. 3Buying power: 1,000 ÷ 1.344 = 744.

Prices rise 34% — 1,000 buys what 744 does today
