Retirement Income Planner

You can use this calculator to determine how much in retirement savings the taxpayer needs to achieve desired retirement income.

You can export the data as a PDF file or clear all data that you entered. For more information, see Financial calculators.

Note: The amount in the Desired Periodic Withdrawal during Retirement field is usually the desired monthly retirement income.

Example

A couple expects to have $250,000 at retirement. Will this provide them with the $2,800 per month that they hope to have during retirement?

Field Input
Desired periodic withdrawal during retirement $2,800
Withdrawals per year 12
Years of withdrawals 20
Annual inflation rate during retirement 1%
Annual rate of return 10%
Accumulated investment at retirement $250,000
Compounded Daily
Total investment at retirement needed $290,149

In this example, the results show that they will not have enough accumulated investment at retirement to meet their goal of $2,800 per month. They will need $313,706.00 at retirement to meet their goal.
