Inflation Calculator

See what today's expense will cost in the future.

ⓘ How this works

Inflation is the gradual rise in prices over time, which means the same amount of money buys less in the future than it does today. This calculator shows what an expense that costs a certain amount today will likely cost after a number of years, given an assumed inflation rate — useful for planning for future costs like education, weddings, or retirement.
