Inflation means an overall increase in the prices of goods and services. It is a decrease in the value of a currency. There are three types of measurement, Core Inflation, CPI, and WPI. Core Inflation is a measurement of non-volatile goods such as food and non-precious metals. It leaves out goods like oil because oil's price is subject to wild fluctuations. CPI is the most common measurement, using a market basket of goods and measuring their price from a point in the past (a CPI of 100 is arbitrarily the same price level for 1982-1984). Thus, the euqation is (Price of most recent market basket/price of same market basket in 1982-1984) X 100. The 100 is to give us the number we normally see. WPI is Wholesale Price Index. It is a measure of wholesaler's prices and is generally considered a pre-cursor to what CPI will be (as it takes time for goods to read the consumer).

How do you calculate IE ratio?
The IE (Inflation-Adjusted Earnings) ratio is calculated by dividing a company's inflation-adjusted earnings by its total assets. To compute this, first adjust the earnings for inflation, typically using a relevant index such as the Consumer Price Index (CPI). Then, divide the inflation-adjusted earnings by the total assets to get the IE ratio. This ratio helps assess the efficiency of a company in generating earnings relative to its asset base, taking inflation into account.

When you are earning interest is it better to have high or low rates?
High rates.However, high interest rates are usually a consequence of high inflation rates and so what matters is not the interest rate but the real interest rate which is the nominal interest rate relative to the inflation rate.Thus a 3% interest rate when inflation is 1% is better that a 5% interest rate when inflation is 4%.
What is 40000 in 1884 worth in 2013?
To determine the value of $40,000 in 1884 in terms of 2013 dollars, we can use historical inflation rates. Based on average inflation rates in the U.S., $40,000 in 1884 is roughly equivalent to about $1.1 million in 2013, depending on the specific inflation calculator used. This illustrates the significant impact of inflation over time on the purchasing power of money.

An IBOE Bond, or Inflation-Linked Bond, is a type of debt security designed to protect investors from inflation. The principal value of these bonds is adjusted based on changes in inflation rates, typically measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI).

These bonds are often issued by governments to attract investors looking for a hedge against inflation.
