Investment Scenario Calculator

Project future portfolio value, dividend income, monthly income, and total return forward from your own assumptions.

Investment Scenario Calculator

Enter an initial investment, optional monthly contributions, your expected annual price return, and a dividend yield to project future value, dividend income, monthly income, yield on cost, and total return. It combines price growth and dividends in one model. Every number is your own assumption, it fetches no live data, and the ticker field is a label only. Everything stays in your browser.

Modeling dividends only? Use the Dividend Calculator. Looking at a single past buy and sell? Use the Stock Return Calculator.

Enter an initial investment (or a monthly contribution), the years invested, and your expected annual price return to project the scenario.

Assumptions this calculator makes

Price return: The expected annual price return is your assumption, not a forecast. US stocks have returned roughly 6% to 7% a year above inflation over the long run, with deep losses along the way. A constant return is a simplification, not how markets actually move.

Dividend yield: The yield, the payment frequency, and any dividend growth are all your assumptions. Real yields move with price and payouts, and companies can cut or suspend dividends at any time. Nothing here is guaranteed.

Reinvestment: With dividends reinvested (DRIP), each payout is assumed to buy more at the current value, so income compounds. Turn it off to see dividends taken as cash instead.

Not modeled: Taxes, fees, and inflation are left out, and the ticker field does not pull live data. Treat the output as a starting point for your own planning, not advice.

These results are estimates, not predictions. They are based on the inputs you provide and assumed rates of return, which are not guaranteed. Real markets rise and fall every year. For educational purposes only, not financial advice.
