Why these calculators

Most finance calculators give you a number and nothing else. These give you the number, the assumptions behind it, a year-by-year breakdown you can inspect, and a written explanation of what the maths is doing — so you can check the result rather than trust it.

Nothing is stored
Every calculation runs in your browser. Your figures never reach a server.
Assumptions stated
Where a number depends on an assumption, we say so on the page.
Checked twice
Every worked example is verified against a separate implementation.
