How to calculate inflation rate for $100 since 2000

Our calculations use the following inflation rate formula to calculate the change in value between 2000 and today:

CPI today CPI in 2000

Then plug in historical CPI values. The Canadian CPI was 95.375 in the year 2000 and 158.8 in 2024:

158.895.375
×

To get the total inflation rate for the 24 years between 2000 and 2024, we use the following formula:

CPI in 2024 - CPI in 2000CPI in 2000
