Frequently Asked Questions

How the Numbers Are Calculated

The calculator simulates the plan month by month: each month a withdrawal is taken from the corpus (capped at whatever balance remains), and the remaining balance then compounds at the monthly rate implied by your expected annual return.

Monthly rate

i = Expected annual return ÷ 12

Each month

Balance = (Balance − Withdrawal) × (1 + i)

  • Withdrawal starts at the Monthly Withdrawal amount and increases by the Inflation Rate / Step-Up percentage at the start of each subsequent year.
  • Withdrawal Rate = (Monthly Withdrawal × 12) ÷ Starting Investment × 100, measured against the first year's withdrawal.
  • Once the balance reaches zero the plan is marked depleted and no further withdrawals are taken; all figures are rounded only at the point they are displayed.
