Quick answer: how much will my savings grow?

Overview of the Savings Calculator

The Savings Calculator shows where your savings are heading and what it takes to reach a target. Enter a starting balance, monthly savings, an interest rate and a time period for a projection, or fill in a savings goal to find the monthly deposit that gets you there.

Increase your monthly savings each year with the annual-increase box — raises in salary are a good time to do this. Add inflation to see future purchasing power. For long-term market investing, see the Investment Calculator.

How We Calculate

The calculator applies the standard financial formulas step by step.

  1. Convert the annual rate into a growth factor for each month, using your chosen compounding: (1 + rate ÷ n)^(n ÷ 12).
  2. Start with the initial amount and, for each month, add the growth and then the deposit (or the deposit first if you choose the start of the month).
  3. Raise the deposit once a year if you set an annual increase.
  4. Repeat for every month of the period, recording the balance each year.
  5. Subtract total deposits from the end balance to get the interest earned; divide by (1 + inflation)^years for the value in today's money.
  6. For a goal, find the lump-sum growth of your starting balance and solve for the deposit that covers the remaining amount.
balance = P × (1 + r/n)^(n·t) + deposits compounded
monthly factor = (1 + r/n)^(n/12)
interest = end balance − total deposits

Savings Calculator — Frequently Asked Questions

How much should I save each month?

A common guide is 20% of take-home pay, but the right amount depends on your goals. Enter a goal to find the exact monthly figure.

How is the monthly deposit for a goal calculated?

The calculator grows your starting balance, then solves for the deposit whose growth makes up the shortfall.

Should I deposit at the start or end of the month?

Depositing at the start earns a month's extra interest on each deposit. The choice changes the result slightly.

Does increasing my deposits each year help?

A lot. Even a 5% annual increase significantly raises the final balance for long periods.

What interest rate should I use?

Use your account's rate for savings, or a realistic long-term return for investments. Avoid assuming unusually high returns.

What is an emergency fund?

Three to six months of expenses kept in an easily accessible savings account before you invest for the long term.

How is the savings calculator calculated?

It uses the standard formula: balance = P × (1 + r/n)^(n·t) + deposits compounded The full method and a worked example are shown on this page.

Is this financial advice?

No. The calculator gives estimates for planning and learning. Real offers vary by lender, product and date, so confirm the details with your bank, lender or a qualified adviser before deciding.

Can I use another currency?

Yes. The maths is identical in any currency; only the currency symbol shown in the results differs.

Is my data stored?

No. Everything is calculated in your browser and nothing you enter is uploaded or saved.
