Description:
InflationMaster(tm) quickly answers questions like, "Babe Ruth¿s salary was $75,000 in 1930.
How much is that today?" or "I can''t believe how much soda costs these days, do you know what I paid for it when I was a kid?" and "My parents paid $25,000 for their new house in 1959, did they get a deal?"
InflationMaster quickly calculates the precise effects of inflation for any years from 1913 through 2002 (2002 based on official estimates).
InflationMaster uses actual inflation data published by the United States Federal Reserve and takes into account years with high inflation, years with low inflation even deflationary years.
InflationMaster calculates forwards and backwards and computes the inflation rate for any given year.
Update Description:
- Updated to include years 1800 through 2004.
- All data from the US Federal Reserve; 2004 based on 3rd and 4th quarter estimates.

Great for comparing what life was like when kids! Small, stable and fun for those numerically-inclined. What the heck, fun for all! Go ahead and download this.

I think it's excellent, then again I wrote it so I might not be the best person to ask. There's a new version for 2005 (ver 2.8)

A fairly good program. It is simple, does one simple thing, and takes up almost no room (4KB). I used it when visiting a museum and found it interesting to see what the "value" of things then would be now.
