How Calculations Work
- “Future Value”
- Calculate the amount accumulated in the future based on the inputs you provide.
- “Contribution/Withdrawal”
- Calculate how much to contribute per period to reach your target future value, or how much can be withdrawn per period depending on inputs.
- “Years Required”
- Calculate how many years of investing are needed to reach your target based on the inputs.
- “Required Rate”
- Calculate what percentage rate of return is required to reach your target based on the inputs.
Assumptions
Calculations in this service are performed under the assumptions below. Depending on these assumptions, small discrepancies may occur.
- 1. Selection of compounding/contribution period
- You can choose the compounding period and contribution frequency as either “annual” or “monthly”. These two settings are linked; you cannot select them independently (for example, annual compounding with monthly contributions).
- 2. Rounding during calculations
- Only the values displayed in results are rounded. Intermediate values used during calculations are not rounded, but small discrepancies may occur due to decimal precision limits.
- 3. Display of “Years Required”
- Even when the compounding period/contribution frequency is set to monthly, the “Years Required” result is shown in years only. The year closest to the month in which the target future value is reached is displayed. As a result, the target future value you entered and the displayed future value may differ slightly.
- 4. Precision of “Required Rate”
- The rate is calculated up to four decimal places. The result shows the rate that most closely reaches your target future value; due to the limit on decimal places, it may not match exactly.
