Savings Goal Calculator FAQ

How is the required monthly savings amount calculated?

The target is reduced by the future value of current savings, then the remaining amount is divided by the future-value factor for monthly deposits.

What if the required monthly deposit is zero?

The entered current balance is projected to meet or exceed the target at the assumed return without additional deposits.
