Work & Installation — Input to Output Summary
Work: Uses standard annuity formulas:
Future Value (FV) of Ordinary Annuity: FV = PMT × [((1 + r)^n – 1) / r]
Present Value (PV) of Annuity: PV = PMT × [1 – (1 + r)^-n] / r
Where PMT = periodic payment, r = interest rate per period, n = number of periods.
Installation: Online tool—no installation required.
Input: Principal/Payment Amount, Interest Rate (%), Number of Periods, Payment Type (Ordinary/Annuity Due).
Output: Future Value, Total Payments, Interest Earned, Periodic Payment Amount.
Example: $10,000 investment, 5% interest, 10 years, monthly payments → FV ≈ $16,386.
