Buying power of kr100 in 2019

This chart shows a calculation of buying power equivalence for kr100 in 2019 (price index tracking began in 1955).

For example, if you started with kr100, you would need to end with kr125.77 in order to "adjust" for inflation (sometimes refered to as "beating inflation").

When kr100 is equivalent to kr125.77 over time, that means that the "real value" of a single Swedish krona decreases over time. In other words, a krona will pay for fewer items at the store.

This effect explains how inflation erodes the value of a krona over time. By calculating the value in 2019 dollars, the chart below shows how kr100 is worth less over 5 years.

According to the OECD and the World Bank, each of these SEK amounts below is equal in terms of what it could buy at the time:

This conversion table shows various other 2019 amounts in today's kronor, based on the 25.77% change in prices:

How to calculate inflation rate for kr100 since 2019

Our calculations use the following inflation rate formula to calculate the change in value between 2019 and today:

Then plug in historical CPI values. The Swedish CPI was 106.6745 in the year 2019 and 134.16891501774225 in 2024:

kr100 in 2019 has the same "purchasing power" or "buying power" as kr125.77 in 2024.

To get the total inflation rate for the 5 years between 2019 and 2024, we use the following formula:

Plugging in the values to this equation, we get:
