How much is a quarter​

A U.S. quarter is worth “25 cents,” or one-fourth of a U.S. dollar. Its value in U.S. currency is $0.25. Also, the ‘quarter’ is the 25-cent coin used in the U.S. The 1804 ‘quarter’ was the first silver coin in U.S. Mint history to display its ‘face value.’ Prior to this, both silver and gold coins minted in the United States didn’t have their ‘values’ marked on them.

COLA

Payments for “Supplemental Security Income” (SSI) and “Social Security benefits” are adjusted to account for cost-of-living (living expenses) as determined by the “Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers” (CPI-W). The “Bureau of Labor Statistics” (BLS) prepares the CPI-W. The method for calculating the COLA is outlined in the “Social Security Act.”
