How we worked it out

Updated as you change the numbers.

  1. Equivalent = amount × CPI in the target year ÷ CPI in the starting year.

Method and assumptions

The CPI-U measures prices paid by urban consumers for a basket of goods and services. Annual averages are used for whole years, and the latest published month for “now”. Prices for any particular thing can rise faster or slower than the index.
