50 / 30 / 20 budget
Allocate income using an illustrative budgeting guideline.
How do I use this calculator?
Enter amounts on the same basis: same currency, period and tax treatment. Change one assumption at a time to compare results. The proposed values illustrate the calculation and are not an offer.
The formula
Needs = 50 % ; wants = 30 % ; savings = 20 % of income.
This allocation is an adaptable starting point, not a universal rule.
A practical example
Here is the calculation with the values shown on opening. You can restore them with the reset button.
| Available monthly income | 2,500 € |
|---|---|
| Essential needs | 1,250 € |
| Wants | 750 € |
| Savings and goals | 500 € |
The result corresponds to these inputs and the stated formula. Displayed decimals are rounded to at most six places; calculations retain the available precision until display.
Frequently asked questions
How can I check the result?
Use the formula “Needs = 50 % ; wants = 30 % ; savings = 20 % of income.” with your own values. First check the units and stated conditions, then compare your result with the tool.
Are my data saved?
The entered values are used only for the calculation in your browser. The application does not send them to a calculation service or retain them after reload. See the privacy policy for hosting operations.
Why does the calculator show an error?
An empty field, division by zero or a value incompatible with the formula may prevent calculation. The message explains the correction needed. You may use a dot or comma for decimals.
