What is the advantage of converting to a Roth IRA?

The Roth IRA transfer calculator was designed to demonstrate the advantages of transferring an ordinary IRA account into a Roth IRA account. It determines the change in total net worth, at retirement, of your IRA if you transfer your regular IRA into a Roth IRA. It also allows you to compare the results of paying the rollover taxes out of your IRA account or paying the taxes out of pocket.
