Buying power of zł120 in 2010

This chart shows a calculation of buying power equivalence for zł120 in 2010 (price index tracking began in 1970).

For example, if you started with zł120, you would need to end with zł208.56 in order to "adjust" for inflation (sometimes refered to as "beating inflation").

When zł120 is equivalent to zł208.56 over time, that means that the "real value" of a single Polish zloty decreases over time. In other words, a zloty will pay for fewer items at the store.
