How savings growth is calculated

This calculator adds your monthly deposits to an initial amount and grows the balance with the annual rate you enter. Compound interest earns interest on past interest; simple interest does not. You can also apply an interest tax to estimate the after-tax amount.

Practical guide

Getting the most from the savings calculator

Regular deposits vs a lump sum

A one-time deposit grows only on itself, while adding a fixed amount every month keeps feeding the balance and multiplies the effect of compounding. Try setting the monthly deposit to zero to see a pure lump-sum result, then add a monthly amount to compare.

Why compounding frequency matters

The more often interest is added, the more you earn, because each new interest amount starts earning interest sooner. Monthly compounding usually beats annual compounding at the same nominal rate, though the difference is small at low rates.

Taxes and real returns

Interest is often taxable, so the after-tax figure is what actually lands in your account. This tool estimates it with a flat rate; real rules can include allowances, tiers and timing that vary by country, so treat the result as a planning estimate.

Savings growth formulas

Compound interest: FV = P · (1 + r/n)^(n·t) (r = annual rate, n = periods/year, t = years)
Regular deposits: the future value of a fixed monthly deposit is added on top of the starting balance
After tax: interest earned × (1 − tax rate) is what you keep

How this calculator works

CalcBloom compounds your balance period by period in your browser, adds any regular deposit, and applies your interest-tax rate to the interest earned. It is an estimate: real accounts differ in compounding frequency, tax allowances, tiered rates and timing. Nothing you enter leaves your device.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is compound interest?

It is interest calculated on both your deposits and the interest already earned, so the balance grows faster over time.

What tax rate should I use?

It depends on your country. In Korea, interest income is commonly taxed at 15.4%. Leave the tax off if you only want the pre-tax amount.

Are my numbers saved anywhere?

No. Everything is calculated locally in your browser and nothing is uploaded.

Does it handle both deposits and a starting balance?

Yes. Enter an initial amount, a monthly deposit, or both. Set either to zero to model just one of them.

Is monthly deposit added at the start or end of the month?

Deposits are added at the start of each period and then grow, which matches how most regular savings plans work.

Can I use it for a fixed deposit with no monthly payments?

Yes. Set the monthly deposit to zero and it becomes a lump-sum fixed deposit calculation.
