Projected 401(k) Balance vs Years Until Retirement
How the 401(k) Calculator Works
This calculator projects your retirement savings using compound growth on both your existing balance and future contributions.
Formula
FV = PV × (1 + r)^n + PMT × [(1 + r)^n − 1] / r
Where:
Employer match is calculated as: Salary × Match Limit % × Match Rate %.
Lösungsbeispiel
$50,000 current balance, $19,500/yr contribution, 50% employer match up to 6% of an $85,000 salary, 7% return, 25 years.
- 01Employer match = $85,000 × 6% × 50% = $2,550/yr
- 02Total annual = $19,500 + $2,550 = $22,050
- 03Current balance growth = $50,000 × (1.07)^25 = $271,372
- 04Contribution growth = $22,050 × [(1.07)^25 − 1] / 0.07 = $1,393,751
- 05Projected balance = $271,372 + $1,393,751 = $1,665,123
