How to use Investment Calculator

Use the Investment Calculator to estimate future portfolio value from a starting balance and recurring monthly contributions. It compounds growth monthly and shows total contributions versus estimated investment gains.

Compound growth

The tool compounds the annual return monthly for a simple long-term projection.

Recurring deposits

Monthly contribution timing can be set to the beginning or end of each month.

Growth estimate

Results are projections, not guarantees, because market returns vary.
