How We Calculate Your Goal

This calculator uses standard Future Value (FV) compounding formulas to account for both your monthly contributions and the interest your money earns over time.

Monthly Rate (r)= APY % ÷ 12
Total Months (n)= (Years × 12) + Months
Future Value= Current × (1 + r)^n + PMT × [((1 + r)^n - 1) / r]

Note: We compound interest monthly, which aligns with how most banks and High-Yield Savings Accounts (HYSA) calculate and pay out interest.
