WeVividWeVividCalculate return on investment as a percentage.
ROI = (Final Value − Initial Investment) ÷ Initial Investment × 100. It shows the total percentage return over the whole holding period, regardless of how long that period was.
ROI gives the total return over the whole period, with no regard to time. CAGR annualises that return, which makes it easier to compare investments held for different lengths of time — use the CAGR Calculator if you want a per-year figure.
