How it works

The yearly return is turned into its monthly equivalent, so 12 months of growth equal exactly one year's return. Each month the balance grows and then that month's amount is added. If you enter a yearly increase, the monthly amount rises at the start of each new year. Today's dollars divide the final balance by inflation compounded over the years. The result was checked against the closed-form future-value formula.
