Balance is compounded each period: balance = balance x (1 + r) + contribution.

Recurring deposits are converted to the selected compounding interval.

Use the chart to separate what you put in from what the interest rate generated.

Reference Upgrade

Live validation and instant result updates instead of a submit-only workflow.

Multiple decision metrics are shown together, not only the primary answer.

Formula notes and assumptions are visible on the page so the math is easier to audit.
