Future Value Calculator – Predict the Growth of Your Investments

Plan smarter, invest wiser. Our free Future Value Calculator helps you forecast how much your current savings or investments will be worth in the future. With compound interest working its magic, even small amounts today can turn into a significant sum tomorrow.

📈 What is Future Value?

Future value (FV) is the estimated amount of money your investment will grow to over a specific period, assuming a certain interest rate. It’s based on this formula:

    FV = PV × (1 + r)^n
    Where:
    FV = Future Value
    PV = Present Value (initial investment)
    r  = Interest rate per period
    n  = Number of periods (years/months)
