PV = present value
i = Inflation
n = number of years
Inflation is rise in the average price level of goods and services or a decrease in the purchasing power of the standard unit of currency.
Currently, we have a total of 10,000 Euros in the safe. I assume an inflation rate of 2% per year. What will be the value of my 10,000 Euros after 5 years?
So, substituting into the formula above:
BH = 10,000 / (1 + 0.02)^5
BH = 9,057 Euros will be the value of your 10,000 Euros after 5 years.
