How the Investment Calculator works

Estimate a portfolio’s future value, total contributions and potential investment gain. Enter the requested values in the tool above, select Calculate, and review both the main result and its breakdown.

Formula used

Future value applies monthly growth to the starting balance and recurring deposits after subtracting the annual fee assumption.

Worked example

Changing expected return by even one percentage point can materially affect a 15-year projection.

Practical uses

  • Compare return scenarios
  • See the cost of fees
  • Plan recurring investing

Assumptions and limits
