This calculator uses compound interest formulas to project savings growth. Monthly deposits are calculated using the future value of an annuity formula, while existing savings grow with compound interest. The two are combined for the total projected balance.
Monthly compounding calculates and adds interest to your principal every month, while annual compounding does so once per year. More frequent compounding leads to higher returns. For example, 4% annual rate with monthly compounding yields approximately 4.07% effective annual rate.
The rate depends on your savings vehicle: savings accounts typically offer 0.5-1%, CDs 2-5%, money market funds 3-5%, bonds 3-6%, and diversified investment portfolios 6-10% historically. Choose a rate that matches your actual savings method and risk tolerance.
