Frequently Asked Questions

❓ When should I use CAGR?

Use CAGR when you want to compare how different investments performed annually over time, even if their actual year-to-year returns were volatile.

❓ Is CAGR the same as yearly return?

Not exactly. CAGR smooths the return into a single annual number. Actual yearly returns can vary significantly from that average.

❓ What if my final value is less than initial?

Then CAGR becomes negative, which indicates an annualized decline. This calculator supports negative CAGR as well.
