How to calculate the time value of money with inflation data?

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

Using the CPI formula

When we have both the start and end months, we can use the following formula:

Valuet =Value0 ×
CPIt/CPI0

To obtain the values equivalent in buying power between January 2020 and February 2024, use the corresponding CPI values:

ValueFeb 2024
=ValueJan 2020 ×
CPIFeb 2024/CPIJan 2020
=zł 10,000 ×
148.72/108.1
zł13,757.53

Alternative: Using the compound interest formula

Given that money changes with time as a result of an inflation rate that acts as compound interest, we can use the following formula: 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 months)

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 zł10,000 worth today. There are 49 months between January 2020 and February 2024 and the average inflation rate was 0.6531%. Therefore, we can resolve the formula like this:

ValueFeb 2024
=PV × (1 + i)n
=zł10,000 × (1 + 0.006531)49
