Understanding Inflation

Inflation is the rate at which the general price level of goods and services rises over time, eroding the purchasing power of money. Even moderate inflation of 6% per year significantly reduces the real value of money over long periods.

Future Value = Present Value ร— (1 + Inflation Rate/100)^Years
Real Value = Future Amount / (1 + Inflation Rate/100)^Years
