In the simulation, do interest or contributions apply first?
Each month applies interest first and monthly contribution after.
What input limits are enforced?
Monthly rate up to 20%, yearly rate up to 200%, period up to 600 months or 50 years.
Does the tool provide monthly and yearly projections?
Yes. Output includes a monthly series and an aggregated yearly series.
Is this output an investment recommendation?
No. It is a mathematical simulation for educational planning.
