Which calculation do you need?

If you already know how much you can invest each month, use a growth calculator to estimate the future balance. Start with $10,000, add $300 at the beginning of each month for 20 years, and try an effective annual return of 6%. With annual inflation of 2.5% and taxes set to zero, the projection is about $168,765 in future dollars or $102,992 in today’s purchasing power. Try the inputs in the web calculator

If you know the target instead, use a goal planner to estimate how much to contribute. For retirement, enter the monthly income your investments must cover and the number of years you plan to draw it. See the worked retirement example
