CAGR Calculator

Find the constant annual growth rate connecting a positive start value to an ending value.

Your inputs

Use consistent units and periods. Defaults are examples.

Your result

Check the assumptions below before relying on a result.

Formula and method

CAGR = ((ending value ÷ starting value)^(1 ÷ years) − 1) × 100. Total change = (ending ÷ starting − 1) × 100.

Worked example

10,000 growing to 15,000 over five years has 50% total growth and approximately 8.45% compound annual growth. This does not imply each year actually grew by 8.45%.
