Assumptions
Calculator uses an Expected Investment Growth Rate of 2.8% calculated by subtracting the Rate of Inflation (2.1%)* from the Investment Rate of Return (4.9%)**. This growth rate is used to project the investment balance each year until retirement, considering annual contributions at the end of each year.
Annual income needed in retirement is determined by subtracting annual savings, the Annual OAS Benefit, and an estimated Annual CPP Benefit based on income levels.
Annual replacement income needed in retirement is multiplied by a Replacement Income Multiple (20x) and compared to the total investment balance at retirement. If the investment balance exceeds this multiple, the individual is considered on track for retirement savings.

Assumptions
Calculations use marginal tax rates as of January 2023. Rates take all federal and provincial taxes and surtaxes into account and the basic personal tax credit. The RRSP contribution limit is $30,780 for 2023. The TFSA contribution limit for 2023 is $6,500. Calculations do not factor in the effect of RRSP withdrawals on Old Age Security and other government benefits and credits that are income tested.
The RRSP calculation maximizes your returns by reinvesting your tax refund annually for continued growth.
