Investing & Savings

Investing and Savings Calculators

Model compounding, savings goals, retirement scenarios, portfolio metrics, securities ratios, CDs and investment cash flows.

These calculators turn the return, contribution and valuation assumptions you enter into deterministic scenarios. They do not predict markets, guarantee returns or provide personalized investment advice.

Compound Interest

Project growth from principal, contributions, a nominal annual rate and the compounding frequency you select.

Retirement Calculator

Project retirement savings from current balance, contributions, assumed annual return and inflation. Any 4% withdrawal figure is an illustrative planning heuristic, not a guarantee.

Savings Goal Calculator

Estimate the time or recurring contribution needed to reach a savings target from the starting balance, return assumption and contribution schedule you enter.

401(k) Calculator

Project 401(k) growth from your current balance, salary-based contributions, employer contributions, investment return, and time horizon.

Emergency Fund Calculator

Build an emergency-fund target from the essential monthly expenses and number of months of coverage you choose, then estimate saving progress.

ROI Calculator

Calculate total ROI and net profit from invested capital and ending value. Annualized return is only meaningful when the timing of relevant cash flows is defined.

Future Value Calculator

Project a future balance from starting principal, recurring contributions, an assumed annual rate, time horizon and contribution frequency.

Simple Interest Calculator

Calculate principal × annual rate × time without compounding, with years, months or a 365-day-year conversion and support for 0% interest.

Annuity Calculator

Model a stream of equal payments using the payment amount, rate, number of periods and timing assumptions provided by the calculator.

CD Calculator

Estimate CD maturity value from principal, term and APY. APY is treated as an effective annual yield that already includes the account's compounding convention.

CD Ladder

Model a CD ladder using the APY and term entered for each rung, with each maturity kept on its own date instead of interpolating missing market rates.

Margin Trading Calculator

Model leveraged stock exposure using the initial margin, maintenance requirement and borrowing cost you enter. Broker and regulatory requirements can differ.

Dollar-Cost Averaging

Model recurring investments over time using the contribution amount, schedule and return assumptions you enter.

Dividend Yield

Calculate dividend yield from annual dividends per share and share price, without treating a high yield as an investment recommendation.

Dividend Reinvestment

Project a dividend-reinvestment scenario from share value, dividend assumptions, reinvestment and growth inputs over the period you choose.

Stock Average Down

Calculate the weighted average cost per share after additional purchases using each lot's share count and purchase price.

Portfolio Return

Calculate total portfolio return from beginning value, ending value and entered investment income. Intermediate contributions and withdrawals require dated cash-flow methods that are outside this model.

Asset Allocation

Allocate a portfolio across asset categories and see the resulting percentages and dollar amounts. The tool does not forecast returns or prescribe an optimal allocation.

Bond Yield

Calculate current yield and estimate yield to maturity from the bond's price, coupon, face value and remaining cash flows. It does not treat the sum of coupons as a guaranteed annualized total return.

P/E Ratio

Calculate price-to-earnings metrics and compare them with a benchmark you choose. The tool does not label a stock intrinsically cheap, fair or expensive from a universal P/E threshold.

Price-to-Book Ratio

Calculate P/B from market price and book value and compare it with a benchmark you supply. A low or high P/B alone does not prove undervaluation or overvaluation.

Price-to-Sales Ratio

Calculate price-to-sales from market price and revenue and compare it with a benchmark you choose, without universal cheap-or-expensive thresholds.

How RatioCalc handles financial estimates

Calculator outputs are based on the inputs and assumptions shown by each tool. Important decisions should be checked against primary sources, actual product terms and current rules.
