401(k) Calculator

Project a 401(k) balance from your contribution rate, an employer match, and an assumed return.

This educational projection uses a single constant assumed return and does not model IRS contribution limits, which change annually and are not guaranteed to be reflected here.

Your total contributions

Employer contributions

$97,363

How it works: each year, your contribution and the employer match (capped at the match-limit percent of salary) are added monthly and compound at the assumed return. Salary can optionally grow each year, which grows future contributions too.

Limitations: does not check your contributions against IRS annual elective-deferral limits, which change every year — verify your own contribution stays within current limits.
