How to calculate CAGR
Frequently asked questions
- CAGR stands for compound annual growth rate, which is the average annual growth of an investment over a specified period. It’s a metric often used in business and personal finance.
To calculate the CAGR, divide the ending value by the beginning value. Then, raise the figure to the power of one divided by the number of years. Lastly, subtract one from the result. This answer is a decimal, which you can express as a percentage.
Below is the compound annual growth rate formula:
CAGR = (Ending Value / Beginning Value)^(1/n) - 1
Where 'n' is the number of years
There’s no one-size-fits-all figure for a good CAGR, as it depends on the industry, type of investment, risk involved, and current market conditions. Generally, an attractive CAGR should outperform inflation and its respective industry benchmarks.
For example, an 8-12% CAGR for a large company might be considered desirable, while the same rate for a startup might be too low for some investors.
- CAGR is best used for evaluating the performance of an investment over a specific period, as it provides an annualized rate of return. This makes the CAGR calculator a great tool for comparing different investment options with varying volatility.
