How it is worked out

B = P × (1 + r ÷ 12)12t + M × [(1 + r ÷ 12)12t − 1] ÷ (r ÷ 12)

B
the balance
P
the starting amount
M
the amount added each month
r
the yearly rate as a decimal (5% is 0.05)
t
the number of years

Growth compounds monthly, and each addition is made at the end of the month. Taxes and fees are left out.
