This is a multifunction template. At its simplest, it adds the currency mark "¥", as recommended by MOS:CURRENCY for many situations. The template can also link to the Japanese yen article and can even calculate inflation. See warnings below.

Usage

  • {{¥|number}}
  • {{JPY|number}}
  • {{Yen|number}}

Additional text like "million" or "trillion" must be placed outside the template, typically preceded by a non-breaking space (see example below).

Example:

Link

The parameter |link=yes may be used to link ¥ to the article Japanese yen. This is turned off by default, but may be appropriate for the first occurrence of the term in an article.

Example:

Inflation calculation

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 1946 ≤ year < 2019), the equivalent value represented in 2019 yen will be calculated in parentheses. However, this function should only be used in appropriate situations.

  • {{¥|value|year}}
  • {{¥|value|year|round=round|about=yes}}

Examples:

Additional parameter |about=yes will cause the template to calculate to the nearest yen (instead of the nearest sen or rin), and prefix the calculated value with "about". The rounding can be fine-tuned further by using |round=integer. These parameters may be combined.

Examples:
