How this was worked out

  1. Step 1Monthly rate = 8% ÷ 12 = 0.6667%

Projections assume a constant return with monthly compounding. Actual investment values fluctuate and past performance does not predict future results.

Formula

FV = P(1 + r)ⁿ + C × ((1 + r)ⁿ − 1) ÷ r

Example

Input

$25,000 + $500/month at 8% for 15 years

Result

≈ $256,000
