Assumptions: Although your figures are entered based on today's dollars, they are automatically adjusted for a 3.4% annual inflation rate. Annual retirement needs is based on 80% rate of your current annual income adjusted for inflation and annual 2% increases. It is assumed that the Annual Contributions and Additional Savings entered will continue each year until your entered age of retirement. Taxes (on taxable investment returns and withdrawals from tax deferred retirement plans) are determined based on the current income parameter entered. As such, the favorable tax treatment of dividends and long term capital gains is not reflected - this may result in a conservative calculation of the growth of taxable assets applied in this calculator. Unless you selected the “Add Social Security” option, the amount calculated excludes any anticipated social security payments you may be entitled to.
