Questions about the calculator

How is the result calculated?

The amount is multiplied by the price index of the later year and divided by the index of the earlier year. The index is the official consumer price index: the harmonised index (HICP) from Eurostat for European countries, otherwise the World Bank consumer price index. For Cayman Islands the page uses the consumer price index (World Bank, 2010 = 100), with values from 2009 to 2016.

Does it convert old currencies?

No. The result is in the same currency as the amount you enter. For years before a country adopted the euro or changed its currency, convert the amount at the official rate first, then use the calculator.

Why can my own costs have changed differently?

The index follows the average basket of what households buy. Rent, energy, food or a single product can change faster or slower than the average, so personal inflation differs. More about inflation · Methodology
