Every calculator

Time value of money

  • Future Value of Regular Payments

    A payment stream valued on its own terms: frequency, timing, escalation, and what each of those is worth in dollars.

  • Future Value Calculator

    Project a lump sum and a contribution plan forward, then read the growth, the real value and the return scenarios behind the headline number.

Protection

  • Life Insurance Needs Calculator

    Income multiple, DIME and a full needs analysis side by side, with the coverage gap left after the resources you already hold.

    ProtectionCompare three coverage methods and price the gap between obligations and resources

Retirement income

  • Periodic Withdrawals Calculator

    Decumulation mechanics: how long a balance lasts, what you can withdraw over a chosen duration, and what is left at the end.

Retirement

  • Retirement Savings Calculator

    An age-based projection with a real-terms view and a capital target built from retirement cash flows, not from a withdrawal-rate rule.

    RetirementProject a retirement balance and measure it against a capital target built from retirement income

Tax planning

  • Roth IRA Conversion Calculator

    The taxable share of a conversion under the pro-rata rule, both futures compared after tax, and the break-even future rate solved exactly.

    Tax planningEstimate the taxable part of a conversion and compare both futures after tax
  • Tax Deferred Accumulation Calculator

    What modeled annual taxation costs compounding, and the withdrawal rate at which deferring it stops paying.

    Tax planningCompare a taxable account against a tax-deferred one over the same cash flows

Saving

  • Savings Goal Planner

    Three solve modes against one target: required deposit, time to goal, or projected balance.

    SavingSolve for the deposit, the time or the balance behind a savings target

What every calculator here includes

  • A working calculation with the formula written out beneath it.
  • At least one quantitative table — a schedule, a scenario band or a comparison.
  • An explicit list of the assumptions the model applies.
  • A statement of what the model does not do, and where it stops being reliable.
  • A worked example with arithmetic you can reproduce by hand.

The reasoning behind these models is set out in the methodology.
