Questions

How is compound interest calculated here?

Each month the balance grows by the yearly rate divided by twelve, and your deposit is added. The next month's interest is paid on the larger balance.

Can I leave the monthly deposit at zero?

Yes. Enter only a starting amount to see how a lump sum grows.

What does "In today's money" mean?

The end balance divided by the inflation you entered, so you see its buying power in today's prices.

Is my data sent to a server?

No. The calculation happens in your browser.
