How Retirement Savings are Calculated

The calculator uses compound interest formulas to estimate your retirement corpus:

Future Value = P × (1 + r)^n + PMT × [((1 + r)^n - 1) / r]
Where:

  • P = Current savings
  • r = Monthly return rate
  • n = Number of months until retirement
  • PMT = Monthly contribution

Factors That Affect Retirement Planning

Several factors impact your retirement savings:

  • Current Age: Starting earlier gives more time for compounding
  • Retirement Age: When you plan to retire affects savings duration
  • Monthly Contribution: How much you save regularly
  • Expected Returns: Investment growth rate
  • Inflation: Reduces purchasing power over time
  • Lifestyle Goals: Desired retirement standard of living
