Subject: [ROOTS-L] Formula/chart to figure current value of Money

Does there exist a chart or a formula which enables one to determine the  
current value of money?  For instance, Henry bought a farm in 1850.   What is the 
value in today's money?  John rented a house in 1930 for  $125/month.  What 
is the value in today's money?
