    Inflation Rate Calculation
    Hi,

    Thanks

    The average CPI for 1990 was 22.9, while for 2014 the December report has not been released. We can get a running average for 2014, minus December which will be close. (Data from http://cyberjournalist.org.in/manisana/aicpinew.html)



    Adjusted to the same scale that the 1990 information was pulled (ie. 2010 = 100)



    To calculate inflation we simply find the difference and divide that by the year in question and multiply by 100.
