CAGR Formula

CAGR = (Ending Value / Beginning Value)^(1/n) - 1

CAGR smooths out the return over the period, giving you the consistent annual rate that would produce the same final result.

Example Calculation

$10,000 invested grows to $25,000 in 5 years.

  1. 01CAGR = (25000/10000)^(1/5) - 1
  2. 02= 2.5^0.2 - 1
  3. 03= 1.2011 - 1 = 0.2011
  4. 04CAGR = 20.11%
  5. 05Total return = 150%
