Retirement Planning Formula

The calculator uses the perpetuity formula adjusted for inflation to ensure your corpus lasts throughout retirement:

Corpus = Annual Expenses ÷ (Return Rate - Inflation Rate)
  • Rule of thumb: 25-30x annual expenses for retirement
  • Safety margin: Plan for 85 years to account for longevity risk
  • Inflation hedge: Real returns (returns - inflation) must be positive
