CAGR — Compound Annual Growth Rate
Annualized geometric return from a starting value, ending value, and time. Optionally adjust for inflation and compare nominal vs real growth. Exact doubling time and Rule-of-72 are shown for quick intuition.
Compound Annual Growth Rate
Tip: decimals work (e.g., 1.75 years).
Used to compute a “real” (inflation-adjusted) CAGR.
Formulae: CAGR = (End / Begin)1/Years − 1; real CAGR (Fisher-style) ≈ (1+nominal)/(1+inflation) − 1; doubling time (exact) = ln(2)/ln(1+CAGR); Rule-of-72 is an approximation.
UX approach: clear inputs, instant feedback, quick presets, and progressive disclosure for advanced options.
Educational use; not investment advice.

Results
Growth from the beginning value over the selected horizon. Real line appears when inflation is provided.
How to use the CAGR calculator
Measure smoothed annual growth over multiple years. Before calculating, enter accurate inputs: Enter starting value, ending value, and number of years.
After you get the output, interpret it like this: Use CAGR to compare investments with different durations. Practical tip: CAGR hides volatility, so review drawdowns separately.This calculator is for planning and scenario analysis, so use it with your broader risk management, position sizing, and market context before taking a real trade or investment decision.
