This chart shows a calculation of buying power equivalence for $100 in 1925 (price index tracking began in 1914).
For example, if you started with $100, you would need to end with $100 in order to "adjust" for inflation (sometimes refered to as "beating inflation").
When $100 is equivalent to $100 over time, that means that the "real value" of a single Canadian dollar decreases over time. In other words, a dollar will pay for fewer items at the store.
This effect explains how inflation erodes the value of a dollar over time. By calculating the value in 1925 dollars, the chart below shows how $100 is worth less over 3 years.

Our calculations use the following inflation rate formula to calculate the change in value between 1925 and 1928:
Then plug in historical CPI values. The Canadian CPI was 9.133333333 in the year 1925 and 9.133333333 in 1928:
$100 in 1925 has the same "purchasing power" or "buying power" as $100 in 1928.
To get the total inflation rate for the 3 years between 1925 and 1928, we use the following formula:
Plugging in the values to this equation, we get:
