Inflation planning options
Why does KFWEG use 3%?

KFWEG uses 3% as an educational long-term planning assumption. Inflation changes over time, so 3% is not a prediction or guarantee. The calculator also shows a current U.S. inflation reference and lets you change the assumption to explore other scenarios.

Current U.S. reference: 3.4%, based on the latest published U.S. CPI reading available when this calculator was updated (August 2026). The rate can be changed at any time.

Inflation compounds your household expenses over the years to your retirement goal.

Educational Use Only: This calculator uses the assumptions entered to estimate a retirement savings goal and monthly savings requirement. It does not apply investment returns during the retirement period; the retirement savings goal is calculated as future monthly expenses × 12 × years in retirement. Actual results may vary because of investment performance, inflation, taxes, fees, withdrawals, and other factors. This calculator is not investment, tax, or financial advice.
