Frequently Asked Questions
When are contributions added?
At the end of each month, using the future value of an ordinary annuity. Contributions made at the start of each month would earn one extra month of interest and end slightly higher.
What formula does it use?
FV = P(1 + r)^n + C × ((1 + r)^n − 1) ÷ r, where r is the monthly rate and n the number of months. $1,000 plus $100 a month at 6% for 10 years grows to $18,207.33.
What is the Growth line?
Future value minus everything you put in (the starting balance plus all contributions). In the default example, $13,000 of deposits earns $5,207.33 of growth.
