Which Moneysmart calculator are you comparing?
The separate Account-based Pension Calculator focuses on drawdowns, fees and returns. Its assumptions exclude Age Pension and other investment income; that exclusion does not apply to every Moneysmart retirement tool. Compare each tool using consistent inputs and read its limitations. Our super fund calculator comparison explains other assumptions to check.
