PLAN A GOAL
Turn a future goal into a clear savings plan.
Choose what you are planning for, estimate what it may cost in the future, and see how your current savings plan compares.

HOW IT WORKS
Today’s cost→Future goal cost→Savings needed
Carrowmont separates inflation from investment growth so you can see which assumption is driving the result.
UNDERSTAND BEFORE YOU MODEL

Learn how to work backward from a future target, separate inflation from investment growth and turn a goal into a funding path.

Same assumptions, different time horizon.
HOW IT WORKS
Separate the goal from the investment assumptions.
First, Carrowmont estimates what the goal may cost at the selected date. Then it projects existing savings, recurring contributions at the selected savings / contribution frequency and any future one-time investment using the investment-return assumption. The difference becomes the modelled funding gap.
For home purchase, the target is the selected down payment. For emergency savings, the target is based on essential monthly expenses and the number of months selected.
METHODOLOGY
Transparent calculations.
Future goal cost: Today’s goal cost × (1 + inflation assumption)years.
Existing savings: Projected at the entered annual investment return. Recurring contributions are modelled at the selected savings / contribution frequency using the equivalent periodic rate implied by the annual return.
Required contribution: The recurring contribution at the selected frequency that would model to the future target after allowing for existing savings and any eligible future one-time investment.
All assumptions are user-controlled and constant for modelling purposes. Actual inflation, investment returns, taxes and future prices may differ materially.
