Compound Interest Calculator

Compound interest calculator

Assumptions: figures use the values you entered, monthly periods, and no tax, fees, insurance, changing rates, or currency conversion unless you include them in an amount. Educational estimate only—not financial, investment, or tax advice.

What this calculator shows

An illustration of how a starting balance and regular monthly contributions may grow when a stated annual growth rate is applied monthly.

How to use it

Enter 1000, 6, 10 and 100 to model a starting balance of 1,000 plus 100 each month for ten years at an assumed 6% annual growth rate.

Worked example

Use the example figures above as a learning exercise, then replace them with your own figures and compare more than one scenario before deciding.

Questions people ask

Is the growth rate guaranteed? No. It is an assumption for comparison, not a forecast or investment recommendation.

This tool is designed for clear estimates, not a final quote, offer or recommendation.
