US$
 | This template is used on many pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
This is a multifunction template. At its simplest, it adds the currency mark "US$", as recommended by for many situations. The template can also link to the United States dollar article and can even calculate inflation. See warnings below.
Usage
[ਸੋਧੋ]{{US$|number}}
Additional text like "million" or "trillion" must be placed outside the template, typically preceded by a non-breaking space (see example below).
Example:
{{US$}}→ US${{US$|123.45}}→ US$123.45{{US$|123}}{{nbsp}}million→ US$123 million
Link
[ਸੋਧੋ]The parameter |link=yes may be used to link US$ to the article United States dollar. This is turned off by default, but may be appropriate for the first occurrence of the term in an article.
Example:
{{US$|123.45|link=yes}}→ US$123.45
Suppress "US"
[ਸੋਧੋ]By specifying |long=no, display of "US" before the "$" sign may be suppressed when it is clear from context that the United States dollar is meant, rather than one of the twenty or so other currencies going by the name of "dollar".
Examples:
{{US$|123.45|long=no}}→ $123.45{{US$|123.45|long=no|link=yes}}→ $123.45
Inflation calculation
[ਸੋਧੋ] | This template is only capable of inflating Consumer Price Index values: staples, workers' rent, small service bills (doctor's costs, train tickets). This template is incapable of inflating capital expenses, government expenses, or the personal wealth and expenditure of the rich. Incorrect use of this template would constitute original research. If you yourself do not have economic training, then please consult someone who does before using this template. |  |
| Do not assume that using this template will mean that a calculated value is "current", "as of 2024", "as of 2023" or even necessarily "recent". Do not use {{CURRENTYEAR}} to refer to calculated value, instead {{Inflation/year|US}} may be used. See also . |  |
The template supports inflation calculation, by way of {{Inflation}}. If the second parameter is used, to specify a year, and this year is within a certain range of available inflation data (specifically, if 1634 ≤ year < 2021), the equivalent value represented in 2021 dollars will be calculated in parentheses. However, this function should only be used in appropriate situations.
Examples:
{{US$|100|1633}}→ US$100{{US$|100|1634}}→ US$100 (equivalent to $906.38 in 2021){{US$|100|1966}}→ US$100 (equivalent to $835.18 in 2021){{US$|100|1966|link=yes}}→ US$100 (equivalent to $835.18 in 2021){{US$|100|2020}}→ US$100 (equivalent to $104.71 in 2021){{US$|100|2021}}→ US$100{{US$|100|2024}}→ US$100{{US$|100|2025}}→ US$100
Additional parameter |about=yes will cause the template to calculate to the nearest dollar (instead of the nearest cent), and prefix the calculated value with "about". The rounding can be fine-tuned further by using |round=integer. These parameters may be combined.
Examples:
{{US$|10|1935}}→ US$10 (equivalent to $197.65 in 2021){{US$|10|1935|round=0}}→ US$10 (equivalent to $198 in 2021){{US$|10|1935|about=yes}}→ US$10 (equivalent to about $198 in 2021){{US$|1000|1935|round=2}}→ US$1,000 (equivalent to $19,764.56 in 2021){{US$|1000|1935|round=-2}}→ US$1,000 (equivalent to $19,800 in 2021){{US$|1000|1935|round=-2|about=yes}}→ US$1,000 (equivalent to about $19,800 in 2021)
- Caution
- The inflation-calculation code causes this template to approach the 40-deep expansion depth limit in the software that makes Wikipedia work. Pages that exceed this limit are placed in Category:Pages where expansion depth is exceeded. Using
|about=yescan reduce the impact somewhat. If you call this template from within another template and use the inflation feature, consider adding a caution similar to this one to that template's documention page.
Show year
[ਸੋਧੋ]The parameter |showyear=yes may be used to show in YYYY between the amount and the inflation convertion. This is used for sentence structuring.
Example:
{{US$|100|1850}}→ US$100 (equivalent to $3,257 in 2021){{US$|100|1850|showyear=yes}}→ US$100 in 1850 (equivalent to $3,257 in 2021)
