Working:
Formula = (Current year - Previous year) / Previous year
| Annual growth rate for M1 | Annual growth rate for M2 | Inflation rate | Real interest rate |
| (3166.8 - 2991.7)/2991.7 | (795.4-785.7) / 785.7 | (123.942-118.275) / 118.275 | 8.11% -4.79% |
| (3287.8 - 3166.8) / 3166.8 | (827.2-795.4) / 795.4 | (130.658 - 123.942) / 123.942 | 7.49% - 5.42% |
| (3381.2 - 3287.8) / 3287.8 | (910.4 - 827.2)/ 827.2 | (136.167 - 130.658) / 130.658 | 5.38% - 4.22% |
