How it works

CAGR is the constant yearly rate that would take the starting value to the ending value over the period, calculated as the nth root of the total multiple minus one.

Frequently asked questions

Why not just use average growth?

Averaging yearly percentages overstates growth because gains compound; CAGR removes that distortion.

Does CAGR show volatility?

No. Two very different paths can share a CAGR — it only describes start and end points.
