Why inflation matters

Inflation reduces what a fixed amount of money can buy over time. An amount that feels comfortable today will need to be larger in the future just to maintain the same purchasing power — which is why long-term financial goals should always be planned in "future value" terms, not today's prices.

Formula

FV = PV × (1 + r)n

Where FV = future equivalent value, PV = present value, r = annual inflation rate, n = number of years.
