Frequently asked questions
What is inflation?
Inflation is the rate at which prices rise over time, reducing the buying power of your money. Rs 100 today buys less than Rs 100 five years ago.
What inflation rate should I use?
Pakistan long-term average: 8-12%. India: 5-7%. USA: 2-3%. UK: 2-3%. Check your country's central bank for current numbers. Use higher rates for conservative planning.
How is future value calculated?
Future value = Present × (1 + rate)^years. So Rs 10,000 at 5% inflation for 10 years = 10,000 × 1.629 = Rs 16,289 needed to have same buying power.
Why does inflation matter for savings?
If your savings earn less than inflation, you're losing money in real terms. A savings account at 3% loses to 7% inflation — always invest to beat inflation.
