Other Stuff
As accounting professionals, these are some of the questions that are posed to us on a daily basis. We are providing these interactive financial calculators and other tools to assist you with some of the day-to-day questions and concerns that may arise. While these financial tools are not a substitute for financial advice from a qualified professional, they can be used as a starting point in your decision making process or help to focus your questions when you do discuss your situation with us.
Auto Loan
Find out how much automobile you can buy based on your weekly, bi-weekly or monthly payment, or find out your loan payment based on your purchase price!
Equipment Buy vs. Lease
Should you lease your next equipment or buy and finance it? The decision as to how best to finance a major equipment acquisition is not a straight forward calculation. Not only does it depend on interest rates and cost, but the purchaser has to consider other factors such as tax consequences, corporate policy, and cash flow implications. This calculator can provide a good starting point for further discussions.
Retirement Planner
For the young, retirement is a lifetime away, but for many of our clients, retirement is on the horizon. It is never too early to start and good planning can ensure a retirement that provides an enjoyable and welcome quality of life. Working until you drop is not retirement planning.
Mortgage Qualifier
This calculator helps you determine just how much house you can afford in today’s real estate market. When buying a new or replacement home, always take into consideration the city in which you live, future interest rates, and family unit’s job security.
Savings Calculator
Whether saving for a new car, a vacation, or retirement, this simple calculator will help determine how much money to set aside each month to achieve your goal. Find out how consistent investments and savings over a number of years can be an effective strategy to accumulate wealth.
Home Budget
Analyze your household budget and see if you can afford those new shoes or have to cut back to macaroni and cheese seven days a week.
Life Expectancy Calculator
While everyone would like to know, not everyone agrees with the results. This calculator will give you a little insight on how long you’ll be sticking around and how much time you have to spend your savings and inheritance. (I took the test and you can expect to have your accountant around until age 98)
Cost of Post-Secondary Education
While it is most likely that your home will be one of your biggest purchases, the cost of education for your children may run a close second. Depending on where they go and what they want to do for the next 40 years, a child’s post-secondary education will impact family resources and future savings. While the use of the RESP will assist in the savings process, this calculator will help determine when enough educational savings are achieved.
Foreign Currency Calculator
Simple and useful. Whether planning a vacation or a business proposal, this calculator will assist with conversion between the world’s different currencies in real time.
