Frequently asked questions
What is the formula for calculating CAGR?
CAGR = (Ending Value / Beginning Value)^(1 / Number of Years) - 1.
Why is CAGR preferred over average annual return?
Arithmetic averages distort returns when investments suffer downturns (e.g., +50% followed by -50% equals an arithmetic average of 0%, but represents an actual 25% net loss). CAGR calculates the true compound rate of return.
