This is a multifunction template. At its simplest, it adds the currency mark "A$", as recommended by MOS:CURRENCY for many situations. The template can also link to the Australian dollar article and can even calculate inflation. See warnings below.
Usage
{{AUD|value}}
Example:
{{AUD}}→ A${{AUD|123.45}}→ A$123.45
Link
The parameter |link=yes may be used to link A$ to the article Australian dollar. This is turned off by default, but may be appropriate for the first occurrence of the term in an article.
Example:
{{AUD|123.45|link=yes}}→ A$123.45
Inflation calculation
Do not assume that using this template will mean that a calculated value is "current", "as of 2026", "as of 2025" or even necessarily "recent". Do not use {{CURRENTYEAR}} to refer to calculated value, instead {{Inflation/year|AU}} may be used. See also MOS:REALTIME. |
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 1901 ≤ year < 2018), the equivalent value represented in 2018 dollars will be calculated in parentheses. However, this function should only be used in appropriate situations.
Examples:
{{AUD|100|1900}}→ A$100 ($Error when using {{Inflation}}: NaN, check parameters for non-numeric data:|r=Expression error: Unexpected < operator.. in 2026){{AUD|100|1901}}→ A$100 ($7,723 in 2026){{AUD|100|1966}}→ A$100 ($1,315 in 2026){{AUD|100|1966|link=yes}}→ A$100 ($1,315 in 2026){{AUD|100|2017}}→ A$100 ($101.91 in 2026){{AUD|100|2018}}→ A$100 ($100 in 2026){{AUD|100|2026}}→ A$100{{AUD|100|2027}}→ A$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:
{{AUD|10|1935}}→ A$10 ($490.54 in 2026){{AUD|10|1935|round=0}}→ A$10 ($491 in 2026){{AUD|10|1935|about=yes}}→ A$10 (about $491 in 2026){{AUD|1000|1935|round=2}}→ A$1,000 ($49,054.05 in 2026){{AUD|1000|1935|round=-2}}→ A$1,000 ($49,100 in 2026){{AUD|1000|1935|round=-2|about=yes}}→ A$1,000 (about $49,100 in 2026)
