Shrinkflation کا حساب کیسے لگائیں
Shrinkflation کیا ہے؟
The Shrinkflation Calculator quantifies when a product's size shrinks but price stays the same — calculating the effective price increase per unit. Common examples: cereal box dropping from 16 oz to 14 oz at same price = 12.5% effective price increase. Calculator computes old/new price-per-unit and labels the magnitude.
