How it works

Future Value = Deposit × (1 + r/n)^(n×Years) + PM × [((1 + r/n)^(n×Years) − 1) / (r/n)] × (n/12). We calculate final balance, total contributions, and total interest. Optionally adjust for inflation.

Inputs explained

Initial Deposit, Monthly Contribution, Annual Interest Rate, Compounding Frequency, Savings Term, Optional Inflation.

Example

Deposit=5,000, PM=200, r=3%, n=Monthly, t=10 years → FV ≈ $34,876; Contributions=$29,000; Interest≈$5,876.

Tips & notes

  • More frequent compounding yields slightly higher returns.
  • Regular contributions significantly boost long‑term growth.
  • Adjust for inflation to see real purchasing power.
