ESTIMATING INFLATION
PART 1: PRICE PROJECTIONS
Last year you purchased a pair of jeans for $75.00 at your favorite store. This year that same pair of jeans is priced at $89.00.

2. If that inflation rate remains consistent, how much will the jeans cost in the future? Use a calculator to fill in the chart.

3. Which years reflect actual prices?
Hypothetical prices?
4. Inflation rates are rarely consistent from year to year. Estimate the prices if the inflation rate is 5% higher in future year 2
than it was this year, then another 3.5% higher in future year 3, and then falls by 2% in future year 4.
