How it works›

Model and assumptions. Compounds the initial balance and periodic contributions at the entered return. For level end-of-period deposits, future value is P(1+r)^n + C((1+r)^n−1)/r, with the zero-rate limit P + Cn. The modeled rate is constant; market volatility, fees and taxes apply only where entered.OpenStax: time value of moneyOpenStax: annuity formulas
