Lump-Sum Investment Calculator
Project the growth of a single one-time investment.
About this calculator
A lump-sum investment is a single amount invested today and left to compound. This calculator shows what that amount could become at your expected annual return over a chosen number of years, and how much of the final figure is pure growth.
Compare the outcome with the Dollar-Cost Averaging calculator to weigh investing all at once against spreading contributions over time.
