# How is the Estimated Term field used?

## The Estimated Term field in addy Business is the approximate timeline that investors can expect to receive their return of capital.

The Estimated Term field is displayed to addy investors on the property page for your issuance. The field input is in months, which is then calculated to a "X years X months" format.

For example, a term of 24 months would display as 2 years, and a term of 28 months would display as 2 years 4 months.
