Value of 1995 Indonesian Ruphias today

Inflation timeline in Indonesia (1995-2018)

The following chart ilustrates the equivalence of Rp100 throughout the years due to inflation and CPI changes. All values are equivalent in terms of purchashing power, which means that for each year the same goods or services could be bought with the indicated amount of money.

All calculations are performed in the local currency (IDR) and using 6 decimal digits. Results show only up to 2 decimal digits to favour readability. Inflation data is provided by governments and international institutions on a monthly basis. Today's values were obtained by estimating figures from recent trends.

The following table contains relevant indicators:

Indicator	Value
Total Inflation (1995-2018)	685.21%
Total Inflation*	702.68%

How to calculate today's value of money after inflation?

There are several ways to calculate the time value of money. Depending on the data available, results can be obtained by using the compound interest formula or the Consumer Price Index (CPI) formula.

Using the compound interest formula

Given that money changes in time as a result of an inflation rate that acts as a compound interest, the following formula can be used: FV = PV (1 + i)ⁿ, where:

FV: Future Value
PV: Present Value
i: Interest rate (inflation)
n: Number of times the interest is compounded (i.e. # of years)

In this case, the future value represents the final amount obtained after applying the inflation rate to our initial value. In other words, it indicates how much are Rp100 worth today. There are 23 years between 1995 and 2018 and the average inflation rate has been 9.066%. Therefore, we can resolve the formula like this:

FV = PV (1 + i)ⁿ = Rp100 * (1 + 0.09)²³ = Rp785.21

Using the CPI formula

When the CPI for both start and end years is known, the following formula can be used:

Final value = Initial value *

CPI final/CPI initial

In this case, the CPI in 1995 was 13.88 and the CPI today is 111.44. Therefore,

Final value = Initial value *
CPI final/CPI initial
= Rp100 *
109.02/13.88
= Rp785.21
