You plan to save $370 per month starting today for the next 46 years at an interest rate of 9.7% will be $791046.3155

Explanation:

Rate = 9.7% / 12 = 0.808333%

Number of periods = 30 * 12 = 360

Future value = (1 + r) * Monthly payments * [ (1 + r) n - 1] / r

Future value = (1 + 0.00808333) * 370 * [ (1 + 0.00808333) 360 - 1] / 0.00808333

Future value = 1.00808333 * 370 * 2,120.819723

Future value = $791046.3155
