Frequently Asked Questions

How does this differ from a standard compound interest calculator?

Instead of assuming a flat annual contribution, this tool increases your contribution by a fixed percentage each year, which better reflects rising income or planned savings increases.

When is the contribution added each year?

This calculator assumes the contribution is added at the start of each year, before that year's growth is applied.

What's a realistic contribution growth rate?

Many people tie contribution increases to expected raises, often in the 3-6% range annually, but you can adjust it to model any scenario.
