Should I stay or should I go... to a cheaper fund? More details here.

Complete the following to calculate if switching is a good idea



How much do you have invested? 
What are your transaction costs for switching?
For Easy equities TFSA use 0.74%, for ABSA TFSA use 0.484%
Don't forget the buy/sell spread on ETFs can add another 1% 
%
Any other switching costs (capital gains, penalties etc.)? 
How many years until you plan on withdrawing the money? 
What is the total expense ratio (also called the TER) of the current fund?  %
What is the total expense ratio of the new fund?  %
 
 
Without making the switch you'd end up with:   R3 290 731
But if you switch you'll actually end up with:   R3 387 626
That's a gain of:   R96 895
You'll be in profit after:   5 years and 8 months
What are you waiting for, go trade!
