How the Savings Calculator works
The savings calculator projects a deposit account balance from a starting amount plus regular monthly deposits, compounded at the account's APY.
Example calculation
$2,000 plus $250 a month at 4% APY for 10 years grows to roughly $39,000, including several thousand dollars of interest.
