Prediction: Value of $100 from 2024 to 2050
$100 in 2024 is equivalent in purchasing power to about $215.66 in 2050, an increase of $115.66 over 26 years. The dollar had an average inflation rate of 3.00% per year between 2024 and 2050, producing a cumulative price increase of 115.66%. The buying power of $100 in 2024 is predicted to be equivalent to $215.66 in 2050.

Buying power of $100 in 2050
This chart shows a calculation of buying power equivalence for $100 in 2024 (price index tracking began in 1922).
For example, if you started with $100, you would need to end with $215.66 in order to "adjust" for inflation (sometimes refered to as "beating inflation").
Future inflation is estimated at 3.00%.When $100 is equivalent to $215.66 over time, that means that the "real value" of a single Australian 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 2024 dollars, the chart below shows how $100 is worth less over 26 years.
