If you are a student, then your college should have access to the IMF International Financial Statistics. The data should be there.

Simplest measure would be to get the inflation data since '87. A better measure would be to get internal PPP but I don't know if that has been done. I do know that a professor in the TCD business school was looking at it but I don't know if he published, or even finished the study.
