SWP calculator

An SWP (systematic withdrawal plan) takes a fixed amount out of a mutual fund every month, often as an income in retirement. What is left keeps earning the fund's return.

How it is worked out

Each month the balance earns a twelfth of the yearly rate, then the withdrawal is taken. When the balance cannot pay a full withdrawal, it pays what is left and the plan ends.

Tax on the gains in each withdrawal is not taken off.
