Our Income Planner Calculator helps you allocate your monthly income across expenses, savings, and investments. Enter your details to create a balanced budget.

How to Use the Income Planner Calculator

1. Enter your monthly income (e.g., $5,000) after taxes.
2. Input your fixed expenses (e.g., $2,000) for rent, utilities, etc.
3. Specify your variable expenses (e.g., $1,000) for groceries, entertainment, etc.
4. Enter your desired savings rate (e.g., 20%) as a percentage of income.
5. Input your desired investment rate (e.g., 10%) as a percentage of income.
6. Click Calculate Income Plan to view your budget allocations and a distribution chart.

The Logic Behind It

The calculator allocates your income as follows:
- Fixed Expenses: User-specified amount (e.g., rent, utilities).
- Variable Expenses: User-specified amount (e.g., groceries, dining).
- Savings: Monthly Income × Savings Rate (%).
- Investments: Monthly Income × Investment Rate (%).
- Disposable Income: Monthly Income - (Fixed Expenses + Variable Expenses + Savings + Investments).
The pie chart visualizes the percentage allocation of income across these categories. If allocations exceed income, an error is displayed.
