## How to Calculate Education ROI

Education ROI compares the cost of education to the lifetime earnings premium it provides.

### Formula

**Lifetime Gain = (Earnings Increase x Career Years) - Education Cost**

**ROI = (Lifetime Gain / Education Cost) x 100**

On average, a bachelor's degree holder earns $1.2 million more over a lifetime compared to a high school diploma holder.

Exemple Résolu

A $100,000 education increases earnings from $35,000 to $55,000 over 30 career years.

  1. Annual earnings gain = $55,000 - $35,000 = $20,000
  2. Lifetime gain = $20,000 x 30 - $100,000 = $500,000
  3. ROI = ($500,000 / $100,000) x 100 = 500%
  4. Breakeven = $100,000 / $20,000 = 5 years
