How to Pay Old Rent

Question
A man rented a house, moved out, and still owed rent for three months. After fourteen years, he paid this rent at the old price. Was his action correct, or should he have paid at today's price?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: This is a debt on his conscience, so it remains at the same old price, and God knows best.
