Step 2: Calculation Options
About CAGR

CAGR Formula
CAGR = (Ending Value ÷ Beginning Value)^(1 ÷ Number of Years) – 1
To calculate CAGR: Divide the ending value by the beginning value. Raise the result to the power of 1 divided by the number of years. Subtract 1 from the result. Multiply by 100 to get a percentage.
