💡 CAGR meaning: CAGR is the single yearly growth rate that would take the initial value to the final value over the same time period.

How does the CAGR calculator work?

CAGR is calculated using the formula:

  • CAGR (%) = ((Final ÷ Initial)1/Years − 1) × 100
  • Absolute Gain = Final − Initial

CAGR helps you compare growth across different investments over different time periods.

Frequently Asked Questions

❓ When should I use CAGR?

Use CAGR when you want to compare how different investments performed annually over time (even if the yearly returns were volatile).

❓ Is CAGR the same as yearly return?

Not exactly. CAGR smooths the return into a single annual number. Actual yearly returns can vary significantly.

❓ What if my final value is less than initial?

Then CAGR becomes negative, indicating an annualized decline. The calculator supports negative CAGR too.
