Common questions about using the annuity and retirement calculators on this page.
An annuity calculator estimates the income or growth an annuity can produce based on inputs like your deposit amount, age, interest rate, and payout option. Different calculators answer different questions, from projecting lump-sum growth to estimating guaranteed monthly income.
Enter your deposit amount, your age, and the payout option into the relevant calculator. For a guaranteed monthly paycheck from a lump sum, use the Immediate Annuity Calculator. To project lifetime income from a fixed index annuity income rider, use the Income Rider Calculator. Actual income depends on current rates, your age, and the carrier you choose.
Yes. All calculators in this hub are free to use. They are designed to help you explore scenarios before you request a quote or speak with a licensed agent.
Some tools include tax-related estimates (for example, Social Security taxable benefits). In general, results are estimates and may not reflect product fees, rider charges, surrender schedules, inflation, or your full tax situation unless the calculator explicitly asks for those inputs.
They are meant for planning and comparison, not as a guarantee of future performance or a commitment from any insurer. Actual annuity rates, payout factors, crediting methods, and taxes vary by carrier, product, state, age, and timing.
No. Using the calculators by itself does not submit an application. If you choose to request a quote or talk with an agent, you will take an explicit action to do that.
Most calculators only need basics like age, deposit amount, time horizon, and a rate or growth assumption. For tax-related tools, you may need estimated income figures. If you are not sure, start with defaults and refine later.
Yes. If you would like help interpreting results or comparing annuity options, you can contact My Annuity Store for a no-pressure conversation and next steps.
Annuities come in a handful of distinct flavors, and the right calculator depends on which one you're shopping. Here's a quick map so you can pick the tool that actually answers your question.
A Multi-Year Guaranteed Annuity locks in a single fixed rate for a set term, typically 3 to 10 years. Think of it as a tax-deferred CD issued by an insurance company. Best for savers who want a predictable, contractually guaranteed return.
Run the Fixed Annuity Calculator →FIAs credit interest based on the performance of a market index (like the S&P 500) up to a cap or participation rate, with a 0% floor in down years. Most are bought for the optional lifetime income rider, not the index growth.
Run the Income Rider Calculator →A Single Premium Immediate Annuity converts a lump sum into a guaranteed monthly paycheck that starts within 12 months. Used to cover essential expenses in retirement, fill a Social Security gap, or replace a pension.
Run the SPIA Calculator →Same idea as a SPIA, but income payments start years later (often at 75 or 80) for a much larger paycheck. A QLAC is the IRS-approved version inside a traditional IRA that also reduces your RMDs.
Run the RMD Calculator →Variable annuities invest in mutual-fund-like subaccounts, so your account value rises and falls with the market. They are sold by registered reps under a prospectus and are generally not the right fit for safety-first retirees.
Compare annuity types →A hybrid of FIA and variable. RILAs offer higher upside caps in exchange for a defined buffer or floor of downside risk (you can lose money). Best for buyers who want more growth potential and can stomach some loss.
