The period is characterized by increased inflationary pressure and economic overheating. Average annual price growth of 11.3% significantly exceeds the norms of monetary stability. Such dynamics aggressively destroy savings: during the specified period, prices rose by 13.88 times, and the purchasing power of UAH collapsed to 7%.

Calculation Methodology

Calculations are based on CPI Ukrstat. It is a consumer price index that measures the average change in prices for goods and services purchased by the population.

Price Multiplier

Price Multiplier shows how many times prices have increased. In macroeconomics, this baseline metric is known as the Price Index Ratio. It is derived directly from official CPI data and serves as the mathematical foundation for all other calculations on this page.

Formula:
Price Multiplier(K)=CPI2026CPI2002\text{Price Multiplier} (K) = \frac{\text{CPI}_{2026}}{\text{CPI}_{2002}}
Calculation:
558.60040.250=13.8783\frac{558.600}{40.250} = 13.8783
Cumulative Inflation

To calculate the cumulative inflation since 2002, we use the following formula:

Formula:
(K1)×100=Cumulative(%)(K - 1) \times 100 = \text{Cumulative} (\%)
Calculation:
(13.87831)×100=1287.8%(13.8783 - 1) \times 100 = 1287.8\%
Average Inflation Rate

Shows the average annual price growth rate including compound interest (where each year's inflation is added to already increased prices). To calculate the average annual inflation for 24 years since 2002, we use the following formula:

Formula:
K1n1=Average Inflation RateK^{\frac{1}{n}} - 1 = \text{Average Inflation Rate}
n — number of years (24)
Calculation:
(13.87831/241)×100=11.3%(13.8783^{1/24} - 1) \times 100 = 11.3\%
Loss of Buying Power

To find out what share of its real value savings in UAH have lost since 2002, we calculate the percentage drop in purchasing power. Loss of buying power is calculated as an inverse proportion to price growth:

Formula:
(11K)×100=Loss of Buying Power(%)\left( 1 - \frac{1}{K} \right) \times 100 = \text{Loss of Buying Power} (\%)
Calculation:
(1113.8783)×100=92.8%\left( 1 - \frac{1}{13.8783} \right) \times 100 = 92.8\%
Equivalent Value

To calculate the equivalent value in terms of purchasing power in 2026, we multiply the initial value from 2002 by the price growth factor:

Formula:
Original Amount×K=Equivalent\text{Original Amount} \times K = \text{Equivalent}
Calculation:
100×13.8783=1,388 UAH100 \times 13.8783 = 1,388 \text{ UAH}
