Accounting for inflation over time requires you to take purchasing power into account, thus specific rates of inflation for certain things can differ from the overall inflation of a society.
If inflation is 3% a year, then $1 this year will only be able to purchase 97 cents worth of goods next year.
So if you have a consistent inflation rate of 3% a year, and want to compare the purchasing power of one dollar from 10 years ago to the current day, then for the first year of inflation, one dollar would drop to 97 cents, and then from there to the next year, 97 cents would only buy 97% of what it could buy the previous year.
Due to this, you cannot simply multiply 3% by the number of years to find the total effect of inflation.
So you would go from $1 to 97 cents one year, and then 97 cents to 94.09 cents of purchasing power over the next year. Then from 94.09 cents to 91.2673 cents the next year.
In order to easily calculate this, you could instead simply take the initial amount of money (lets say $1), and multiply it by (1-r)^n. In this, r is the inflation rate, so that 3% would be 0.03, thus 1-0.03 is 0.97. The variable n is the number of years from year 1.
So if you were to take 1 dollar, and place it into the equation with inflation at 3% a year, you'd find that 1 * (0.97^1) = 97 cents, just like we found up above. 1 * (0.97^2) = 94.09 cents, again as found above.
So $100 dollars in the first year, before any inflation has kicked in, would only be worth $21.80 after 50 years of 3% annual inflation.

If I understand your question correctly, when dealing with inflation, a dollar earned today is worth more than a dollar earned at any time in the future. This has to do with the concept of the present value of money. Because inflation devalues the dollar over time, a dollar earned today is worth more than say, a dollar earned five years from now.
Inflation is the increase of good and services due to a weakening currency. Ex U.S Dollar A saver will only be able to buy less with inflation in mind. People on fixed income are also restricted and since they are on a limited income their dollar buys less beacuse of inflation.
The dollar in your pocket is worth .99 of a dollar. also nominal interest=real interest+inflation so nominal interest goes up by 1%
Yes.
Because inflation is the decrease in the value of a dollar over time, the "older" dollar is always worth more.

No, only PSN cards with dollar amounts on, can be redeemed on the US PSN.

A dollar from 1984 would be worth about $2.30 today. That is equivalent to a yearly inflation rate of 2.82 per year for a total inflation rate of 130.6 percent.
No. The highest denomination New Zealand banknote is the One Hundred Dollar note. For large amounts bank or personal cheques tend to be used, or account transfers made.
