The Reserve Bank of NZ has had on its website for several years a handy little calculator for adjusting the values of anything since 1862 for inflation since.
For example, prices have increased 60% over the last 20 years so something that cost $50 in the first quarter of 1991 should cost $80 now, if adjusted for inflation. Have our book prices kept pace with inflation? In comparing equivalent specifications, some have and some haven't.
