1. What is the Retirement Calculator With Pension?

The Retirement Calculator With Pension estimates the future value of retirement savings, accounting for initial investment, compound interest, and regular contributions. It helps individuals plan for their financial future by projecting retirement fund growth over time.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the retirement formula:

\[ FV = P \times (1 + r / n)^{(n \times t)} + PMT \times \frac{(1 + r / n)^{(n \times t)} - 1}{r / n} \]

Where:

$ FV $ — Future value ($)
$ P $ — Initial amount ($)
$ r $ — Annual growth rate (decimal)
$ n $ — Compounding periods per year
$ t $ — Time in years
$ PMT $ — Periodic contribution ($ per period)

Explanation: The formula calculates compound growth on both the initial investment and regular contributions, providing a comprehensive retirement savings projection.
