An 12th generation Malkavian with 1 Dot in Generation is buying Dementation.

Dementation 1 costs: 10XP.
Dementation 2 costs: Current level (1) x In-clan cost (5) = 5XP.

Now they want Dementation 3. Since 3 is greater than Generation Dots +1 (1+1=2) -- cost is doubled. So,
Dementia 3 costs: Current level (2) x In-clan cost (5) x2 = 20XP.

Dementation 4 also costs them double so,
Dementia 4 costs: Current level (3) x In-clan cost (5) x2 = 30XP

Now they want Dementatia 5. The desired level (5) is more than twice the value of Generation Dots + 1. That is to say that 5 is greater than: (Gen+1) x2 = (1+1) x2 = 4. 5 is greater than 4. So it will cost them 3x as much, instead of 2x as much. So,
Dementia 5 cost: Current level (4) x In-clan cost (5) x3 = 60XP

When in doubt you can ask staff or use the +xpcost <discipline>=<level> to help you figure out the costs.

-Example: Gary Gangrel has 1 dot in his Generation background. He wants to buy Protean 1. The cost is 5xp. When he wants to buy Protean 2, the cost is still 5xp. He has now bought as many dots of the discipline as he has dots of Generation + 1. For his third point of Protean, the multiplier goes to Dots x 10, and so Gary's 3rd dot of Protean is 20 xp. His 4th dot is also Dots x 10 for 30xp. He has now bought as many dots at this multiplier as he has dots of Generation + 1, and so the multiplier goes to Dots x 15. Gary's 5th dot of Protean will cost 4x15=60 xp.
