How the retirement contribution is estimated
The investment horizon is retirement age minus current age. The calculator then estimates the equal monthly or yearly contribution needed to reach the target corpus, assuming each contribution is made at the end of the period and earns the return entered thereafter.
Target corpus
The future amount you want available at retirement.
Investment horizon
The number of years between the two ages entered.
Required contribution
An equal end-of-month or end-of-year investment under the selected scenario.
