Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) Calculator
Compound Annual Interest Rate (CAGR) calculator can be used to calculate the CAGR, Starting Value, Ending Value, and Number of Years
The investment calculator can be used to calculate the value of the investment at a future date at the given rate of return and including any additional contributions you make during the course of the investment.
An investment is an asset that appreciates over time and generates a return for the investor for the money by them. Investing is about distributing money and resources into some activity, business, or project with the expectation of making more money than what you invested. The difference between what you invest and what you earn out of the investment is the profit.

The variables in the calculator include
Initial Amount The amount invested into the business or while buying the asset
Rate of Return The rate of return that one can expect on the investment over the time period of investment
Time Period The time period of investment
Frequency of Compounding The compounding rate could be Annual, Semi-Annual, Weekly, or Daily, depending on the investment.
Additional Contribution The additional amount paid during the course of the investment
Contribution Frequency The frequency of additional contribution
Contribution Due at The payment due at beginning or at the end of period
Final Value The value of the investment after the time period at the given rates of return.
An investment is an asset that one can purchase, expecting to make a profit or generate an income. The value of the investment may increase over time. Investors invest in many assets like stocks, bonds, commodities, ETFs or mutual funds, real estate, and many more.

Some people invest to create additional income streams or to increase their wealth.
There will be different criteria that investors use to evaluate an investment. Some criteria are risk, rate of return, the initial investment required, time period, alignment with personal goals and objectives, etc.
If the investment earns a compound interest, the Investment value at a future date is calculated using the formula shown below. The formula below is also known as the future value formula
Where,
PV → Investment Current Value also known as Present Value
It is the amount that is initially invested or the current value of the asset.
r → Growth rate in % Per Annum
This is the rate of growth of the investment or asset.
n → Time Period in Years
This is the duration after which we want to find the future value of the investment.
If the investment earns a compound interest, then the future value of the investment is calculated using the formula shown below.
Where,
PV → Investment Current Value, also known as Present Value
It is the initial investment amount or the current value of the asset.
r → Growth rate in % Per Annum
This is the rate of growth of the investment or asset.
n → Time Period in Years
This is the duration after which we want to find the future value.
k → Compounding Periods per year
This could be yearly, half-yearly, quarterly, monthly, weekly, or daily.
Compounding Period | k value |
|---|---|
Annually | 1 |
Semi-Annually | 2 |
Quarterly | 4 |
Monthly | 12 |
Weekly | 52 |
Daily | 365 or 366 |
Compounding Period
Person A invests in an asset at $100,000 that has a rate of growth of 8% and is compounded Annually. The investment’s time period is 10 years after which we can sell the asset and gain the benefits. What is the future value of the investment at the time of selling?
The future value of the investment can be calculated using the formula shown below.

Compound Annual Interest Rate (CAGR) calculator can be used to calculate the CAGR, Starting Value, Ending Value, and Number of Years

Effective Annual Interest Rate (EAR) calculator can be used to find the Effective Annual Interest Rate by inputting the nominal interest rate and the compounding frequency

Present Value of Perpetuity Calculator can be used to calculate the present value, discount rate, and cash flow value

Using the Present Value Calculator, you can calculate the present value, discount rate, future value, and the number of periods by inputting the other variables required for the calculation.

Future value (FV) is the value of a current asset at a future date based on an assumed rate of growth. The future value is important to investors and financial planners, as they use it to estimate how much an investment made today will be worth in the future.

Using this calculator you can find the compound interest, interest rate, principal, or time period by inputting all the other variables required for the calculation.
