How to calculate CAGR
Use this calculator to find the smoothed annual growth rate between a beginning and ending value.
What this tool helps with
It compares beginning value, ending value, and years to compute total growth, multiple, and compound annual growth rate.
Inputs to prepare
- Prepare beginning value, ending value, and the number of years in the period.
- The result shows absolute growth, total growth percent, CAGR percent, and multiple.
- CAGR smooths volatility into one rate, so it does not show the path taken between start and end.
How to use it well
- Start with the sample values, then replace them with your own numbers or text.
- Check the result and adjust assumptions before relying on it.
- Use it as a planning aid, then confirm important outputs in the source system or real-world context.

FAQ
What does CAGR mean?
CAGR means compound annual growth rate: the steady annual rate that would turn the start value into the end value.
Can the ending value be lower?
Yes. The CAGR will be negative when the ending value is below the beginning value.
Does CAGR include deposits?
No. This simple version assumes one beginning value and one ending value.
