How the retirement calculator works

Your projected nest egg combines two things: your current savings growing with compound returns, and your future monthly contributions, each also compounding from the moment it is invested until you retire.

FV = PV(1+r)ⁿ + PMT · ((1+r)ⁿ − 1) / r compounded monthly

Frequently asked questions

What return should I assume?+
A diversified long-term portfolio has historically returned roughly 6–8% per year before inflation, but future returns are not guaranteed. Try a few rates to see a range.
Does this account for inflation?+
No. The figure is in future dollars. Use the inflation calculator to see what that amount might be worth in today\u2019s money.
