| IRA Calculator |
This traditional IRA calculator calculates the yearly
distribution after retirement if you contribute your money into a traditional
IRA and then compares this amount to the yearly distribution when you
put your money into a non-IRA account instead.
It shows the power of income tax deferral when you contribute money into
your traditional IRA. Under an ordinary investment account, the interest
earnings from the account are taxable. This reduces the after-tax rate
of return that your money is compounded. If you use the money to contribute
into a traditional IRA (even with the same investment instruments), the
accumulated interest earnings will taxed only when you withdraw them.
The rate return used for compounding is the before-tax rate of return.
The following traditional IRA calculator shows you the power of interest
compounding when the interest earnings of your investments in your traditional
IRA is tax deferred.
Warning! You
should try different value for the variables in the form provided because
no one can be sure about future income tax brackets, future rate of return
on investments and so on. Different sets of values for these variable
generate very different results!
