Evaluating Portfolio Performance with ROI

The **Investment Return Calculator** determines your Return on Investment (ROI), expressed as a percentage of your initial investment. Understanding ROI is critical for evaluating the success of a specific stock, fund, or entire portfolio. A simple ROI calculation provides clarity on profitability:

$$ \text{ROI} = \frac{\text{(Final Value of Investment} - \text{Initial Cost of Investment)}}{\text{Initial Cost of Investment}} \times 100 $$

By regularly calculating your **Investment Return**, you can make data-driven decisions about rebalancing your portfolio and adjusting your **retirement savings** contribution rate.

Projecting Retirement Savings Growth

The **Retirement Savings Calculator** leverages the principles of **compound interest** to project your future wealth. It takes into account your current savings balance, your **401(k) Contribution** rate, employer matching, and expected annual **return** to provide an estimate of how much you'll have by your target **retirement** **age**.

The Power of Compounding

The earlier you start contributing to your **retirement savings**, the more time **compound interest** has to work its magic. Even small increases in your **401(k) Contribution** rate can lead to massive differences over $20$ or $30$ years. Use the tool to model different scenarios and visualize the true power of time in investing.

The Importance of Consistent Contribution

If you're unsure how much you should be setting aside, the **Retirement Savings Calculator** helps define a clear savings metric. It works in tandem with the **Paycheck Calculator** and **Budget Planner** to ensure you allocate enough disposable **income** to meet those long-term **financial goals** without sacrificing your short-term budget.
