Formula & Mathematics
Compound Annual Growth Rate Formula
CAGR = (Ending Value / Beginning Value)¹/ⁿ - 1
Provides the smoothed annualized rate of return across n years, eliminating volatility noise.
Worked Example
₹50,000 growing to ₹1,50,000 in 7 Years
BV = ₹50,000, EV = ₹1,50,000, n = 7 years.
• CAGR = (150000 / 50000)^(1/7) - 1 = (3)^0.142857 - 1 = 16.99%
• Absolute Return = (150000 - 50000) / 50000 = 200%
Your compounded annualized growth rate is 16.99% per year.
Frequently Asked Questions
Absolute return only measures total percentage gain regardless of time, while CAGR accounts for how long it took to achieve that gain on an annualized basis.
