CAGR Calculator

Calculate the Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of an investment given initial value, final value, and number of years.

CAGR
20,11%
Total Return
150,00%
Multiplier
2.50x

Summary

Your investment grew at an annualized rate of 20,11% over 5 years.

That's a total return of 150,00%, or a 2.50x multiplier on your initial investment.

CAGR Calculator

The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) is one of the most useful metrics for evaluating the performance of an investment over time. It smooths out volatile returns into a single annualized rate, making it easy to compare different investments or benchmark against indices.

Enter the initial value, final value, and the number of years. The calculator computes the CAGR using the standard formula, along with the total return percentage and investment multiplier to give you a complete picture of your investment's growth.

How it works

CAGR = (Final Value / Initial Value)^(1 / Number of Years) - 1. The result is expressed as a percentage representing the mean annual growth rate.

Use cases

  • Evaluating the annualized return of a stock or portfolio
  • Comparing performance of different investments over different time periods
  • Projecting future value based on historical growth rates
  • Benchmarking business revenue or profit growth over multiple years
