Adjust dairy and related products prices for inflation

Start with the inflation rate formula:

CPI in 2024 / CPI in 2022 * 2022 USD value = 2024 USD value

Then plug in historical CPI values from above. The CPI for Dairy and related products was 259.184 in the year 2022 and 268.070 in 2024:

268.070 / 259.184 * $20 = $20.69

Therefore, according to U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, $20 in 2022 has the same "purchasing power" as $20.69 in 2024 (in the CPI category of Dairy and related products).
