Understanding the Formula

The calculator uses the future value of an ordinary annuity formula to estimate your retirement savings:

Total Savings = Current Savings + (Monthly Contribution * ((1 + Annual Return Rate/12)^(12*Retirement Age - 12*Current Age) - 1) / (Annual Return Rate/12))

This formula takes into account your initial savings, ongoing monthly contributions, and the growth of your investments over time.
