Investment Calculators

Explore compound growth, regular investing, future value and returns.

Most of the tools here use compound-growth math, but they answer different planning questions. The Compound Interest Calculator separates your deposits from the growth on them. The Investment Calculator also adjusts the result for inflation, while the SIP Calculator handles monthly systematic investment plans and optional annual step-ups.

The remaining tools answer planning questions: future value ("what will this be worth?"), present value ("what is a future amount worth today?"), and ROI ("what did this investment actually return, annualized?"). Every calculator states its compounding assumptions explicitly and shows the year-by-year table behind the headline number.

A note on return assumptions

Every projection depends on the return rate you enter, while real investment returns change from year to year and are not guaranteed. Try a lower, middle and higher rate rather than treating one output as a forecast. Pay particular attention to the lower-rate result: it shows whether the plan still works when returns disappoint.
