Worked example for Singapore
Enter SGD 1,000 as today's cost, 2.24% as the inflation rate and 10 years. If prices in Singapore kept rising at that pace, the same basket would cost SGD 1,248 in 2036, and SGD 1,000 left in cash would buy only what SGD 801 buys now. The figure of SGD 1,000 is just an example amount in Singapore dollar; type your own rent, school fee or grocery bill instead.
The average of the ten calendar-year rates from 2016 to 2025 for Singapore works out at 1.7%. Try that figure as well as the latest 2.24% reading: the gap between the two shows how sensitive a long-range plan in Singapore is to which rate you pick. For a 20-year horizon the difference between 1.7% and 2.24% changes the future cost of SGD 1,000 from SGD 1,414 to SGD 1,557.
