Adjust transportation services prices for inflation

Start with the inflation rate formula:

CPI in 1964 / CPI in 1963 * 1963 USD value = 1964 USD value

Then plug in historical CPI values from above. The CPI for Transportation services was 28.585 in the year 1963 and 29.200 in 1964:

29.200 / 28.585 * $100 = $102.15

Therefore, according to U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, $100 in 1963 has the same "purchasing power" as $102.15 in 1964 (in the CPI category of Transportation services).
