Find the true yearly growth rate
CAGR turns growth over several years into a single, comparable yearly rate. It's widely used for investments, mutual funds, company revenue and market sizes.
The CAGR formula
CAGR = (Ending value ÷ Beginning value)^(1 ÷ years) − 1
Examples
| Start | End | Years | CAGR |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10,000 | 25,000 | 5 | 20.11% |
| 100 | 200 | 10 | 7.18% |
| 50,000 | 40,000 | 3 | −7.17% |
The rule of 72
At a given CAGR, a value doubles in about 72 ÷ CAGR years: at 8%, about 9 years; at 12%, about 6 years.
