Worked example
Initial investment (£): 10000; Monthly investment (£): 200; Assumed annual return (%): 5; Years: 20; Annual charge (%): 0.5; Annual inflation (%): 2
- An assumed effective annual return is reduced by an annual percentage charge. The equivalent monthly factor grows the balance before each month-end contribution; inflation discounts the final value.
- Total invested: £58,000.00
- Growth after charges: £42,624.63
- Inflation-adjusted value: £67,717.49
Projected investment value: £100,624.63
