translateZ inside of parent container with set perspective (keyword: &
The formular to calculate the widths/heights of child elements with translateZ inside of parent container with set perspective is:
$scale = 1 + (translateZ * -1) / perspective.
Where to throw this formular at transform: scale( $scale ).
perspective is parents perspective value and translateZ is elements translateZ value as well. See snippet at the bottom or SASS mockup as you like.
So actually the answer was given in the question!
While this is the correct answer to the asked question this didn't solve my specific problem at all so here is a follow-up-question.

CSS example:
/* formular: 1 + (translateZ * -1) / perspective */
#parent {
perspective: 10px;
}
.child--1 { /* 1 + (-100 * -1) / 10 */
transform: translateZ(-100px) scale( 11 );
}
.child--2 { /* 1 + (-200 * -1) / 10 */
transform: translateZ(-200px) scale( 21 );
}
.child--3 { /* 1 + (1 * -1) / 10 */
transform: translateZ(1px) scale( 0.9 );
}
