Assumed return 8 percent a year, credited monthly, not a forecast.

How it works

A systematic withdrawal plan takes a fixed amount out every month while the rest stays invested. The calculator credits a month of growth and then deducts the withdrawal, month after month, and reports when the balance would run out.

Formula

Each month: balance = balance x (1 + r/12) - withdrawal

  • Withdrawals from mutual funds may be taxed as capital gains; this calculator ignores tax.

Frequently asked questions

How long will my money last with an SWP?

Enter the corpus, monthly withdrawal and an assumed return; the result shows when the balance would reach zero, if within the period.

What is a safe withdrawal amount?

There is no single safe figure. Lower withdrawals and lower assumed returns give a more cautious picture.

Does the SWP calculator include inflation?

No. Withdrawals stay fixed; raise the amount yourself to test rising expenses.
