We examine the calculation of density perturbation at large scales in
the inflationary scenario. The formula for its magnitude is reviewed f
rom first principles and applied to the original model of extended inf
lation. Our estimate is an order of magnitude bigger than the earlier
ones due to the difference in the time at which the primordial fluctua
tion is evaluated and to the inclusion of terms neglected earlier in t
he standard formula for density perturbation.
