These figures are arithmetic on the numbers you entered. They are not a projection, a target or a recommendation.

How it works

Future cost = today's cost × (1 + inflation)^years. The same formula run in reverse shows how much purchasing power a fixed amount of money keeps over time.

Assumptions behind the numbers

Constant inflation
One average inflation rate is applied to every year.
Your basket may differ
Published inflation is an average; your rent, fees and food costs may move differently.
