Buying power of €0.01 in 1964
This chart shows a calculation of buying power equivalence for €0.01 in 1964 (price index tracking began in 1955).
For example, if you started with €0.01, you would need to end with €1.08 in order to "adjust" for inflation (sometimes referred to as "beating inflation").
When €0.01 is equivalent to €1.08 over time, that means that the "real value" of a single Greece euro decreases over time. In other words, a euro will pay for fewer items at the store.
This effect explains how inflation erodes the value of a euro over time. By calculating the value in 1964 dollars, the chart below shows how €0.01 is worth less over 62 years.
