constant dollar [or any other currency]

Definition

Purchasing power of a currency expressed in relation to its purchasing power in a specified year or period. In inflationary times wages are adjusted for the effects of inflation (are 'deflated') by using an index (such as a consumer price index or CPI) to find their worth in constant currency ('in real terms'). See also current dollar [or any other currency].
