Savings Calculator — calculate future value

This calculator easily answers the question "If I save 'X' amount for 'Y' months what will the value be at the end?"

The user enters the "Periodic Savings Amount" (amount saved or invested every month); the "Number of Months" and the "Annual Interest Rate" or the annual rate of return one expects to earn on their investments.

The calculator quickly creates a savings schedule and a set of charts that will help the user see the relationship between the amount invested and the return on the investment. The schedule can be copied and pasted to Excel, if desired.

The investment term is always expressed in months.

•  60 months =  5 years
• 120 months = 10 years
• 180 months = 15 years
• 240 months = 20 years
• 360 months = 30 years

If you need a more advanced "Savings Calculator" — one that lets the user solve for the starting amount, the amount to invest, the interest rate, the term required to reach a goal or the future value; or if you would like to easily print the schedule; or if you need to pick a different investment frequency, then you may want to try the calculator located here: https:/financial-calculators.com/savings-calculator
