Calculation assumptions

Calculations use monthly steps. Weekly payments are averaged as 52/12 payments per month; they are not scheduled by calendar date. Annual payments occur at the beginning or end of each year. Daily compounding uses a fixed 365-day convention. Annual payment increases apply every 12 months to both deposits and withdrawals. Tax applies monthly to positive interest; fees are deducted monthly from the balance and capped at available funds. Withdrawals cannot overdraw the account. Simple interest accrues on contributed capital remaining in the account; withdrawals and fees reduce that capital proportionally. Inflation changes purchasing power, not the nominal balance. Full method.

A matching FV formula is available for constant monthly payments without tax, fees or account exhaustion. Annual and increasing payments require the exported schedule. Inflation adjustment is separate.

Guide

Deposit frequency, timing and increases

£10,000 plus £250 deposited at the end of every month at a 5% nominal annual rate, compounded monthly for ten years, becomes approximately £55,290.66. £30,000 comes from the additional deposits.

Annual deposits occur at the start or end of each year, rather than being split into monthly payments. An annual increase changes payments after each full year. Weekly deposits are approximated as 52/12 weekly payments each month. See the deposit guide for examples.

How this calculator works

This version is set up for regular contributions. Add your starting amount, the amount you plan to deposit, and whether deposits happen weekly, monthly or annually. The calculator shows how much of the final value came from your own contributions and how much came from compound growth.

You can still change every input: currency, interest rate, years and months, compounding frequency, contribution timing, inflation and tax or fees. Use the share URL button to save a pre-filled version of the result.
