How this was calculated
Based on the US Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Price Index (CPI). The cumulative inflation factor is the ratio of the 2015 CPI to the 2000 CPI.
factor = CPI(2015) / CPI(2000) = 1.3763
annual = factor^(1/15) − 1 = 0.0215 (2.15%)
annual = factor^(1/15) − 1 = 0.0215 (2.15%)
