Deposits are assumed to land at the end of every month and earn the same steady return. If the money is going somewhere safe like a CD or money market, use a rate closer to what the bank is quoting today.

In plain English

Savings Goal explained simply

You have something you want to buy. This tells you how much to tuck away each month to get there on time.

For example

Want $10,000 in 3 years and you already saved $2,000? You'd need to set aside roughly $215 a month.
