Firstly, you will never be asked to calculate an NPV on a monthly basis.
Secondly, it depends whether or not the flows are quoted at current prices.
Thirdly, if depends whether the inflation is 5% per annum, or 5% per month.
Best is for you to watch the free lecture on Investment Appraisal with inflation and tax.

You multiply the current price flow by (1+i)^n where i is the rate of inflation and were n is the timing of the cash flow.
However, flows are not always given in current prices.
Again – you should watch the free lecture. I cannot type out the whole lecture here!
