How Does the Lumpsum Calculator Work?
The calculator uses the formula for compound interest, which assumes that returns are reinvested and continuously grow over time.
Formula Used:
Future Value (FV) = P × (1 + r)^n
Where:
- FV = Future Value of investment
- P = Principal amount invested
- r = Annual rate of return (in decimal form)
- n = Number of years invested
For example, if you invest Rs.1,00,000 at 8% for 10 years:
Future Value = 1,00,000 × (1+ 0.08)^10
This means your investment could grow significantly due to compounding.
