Xander Hartog asked 3 weeks ago

I've been searching high and low on all the search engines, google, AI tools etc and I'm starting to believe this cannot be achieved. 

The idea is simple; 
Input 1: Starting Balance
Input 2: Monthly Return. 
Input 3: Period (example; 2 years)

What I would like to achieve is:
- a table is generated for the time Period divided in months
- Every row builds upon the outcome of the previous row. 
- A graph showing the curve. 

The image is pretty easy to understand, but I'm utterly stuck on how I could build this as an application or a predictive form or.. well, whatever this would be called. 

Maybe it's incredibly simple and I just can't see what I'm missing or maybe it is indeed complex to build and I',m looking for pointer, guidance or any (paid?) help to get this working.

What you want to do is very possible. This is an example of a retirement calculator prototype I built for a client with Formidable and Chart.js. https://formidable-masterminds.com/create-interactive-graphs-with-chart-js-and-formidable/
