thanks zoltan for your reply,I think i am getting to know how it is calculated, but i want to give you full details on how I assign the budget to the schedule.I have made:a non labor resource and named it "Cash"this resource has the units as in the screen shot in the first topic in the threadI have assgined this resource to the activities where inflation will occurI have put each activity budget (calculated by the cost team) in the budgeted non labor unitsthe primavera calculates the budgeted cost by multiplying the budgetd non labor unit * standard rateI want to know how this will impact the calculation, as I have made an exercise to see how the inflation is applied. I have made a four year activity to see the distribution of the budget on it. and I have made 4 one year activities as in the screen shot below[[wysiwyg_imageupload:2359:]]the total is not the same and the distribution is not the same, any help with this issue

if you have calculate costs from units checked then it will take your standard rate for that day multiplied by the manhours scheduled to be perfomed for during that time frame. All manhours scheduled to be performed in 2013 will be multiplied by $1.00 so 50 manhours * $1.00 equals $50.00 for those activitiesAll manhours scheduled to be performed in 2014 will be multiplied by $1.00 so 50 manhours * $1.00 equals $50.00 for those activitiesAll manhours scheduled to be performed in 2015 will be multiplied by $1.07 so 50 manhours * $1.07 equals $53.50 for those activities
