Calculate your return on investment. Enter the amount you invested and what it is worth now to see your ROI percentage, net profit, and the annualized return.
Return on investment is the net profit divided by the amount invested, shown as a percentage: ROI = (Final value − Amount invested) ÷ Amount invested × 100. When you enter a holding period, the calculator also shows the annualized return using (Final ÷ Cost)(1 ÷ years) − 1, which spreads the total gain evenly across each year so you can compare investments held for different lengths of time.
It depends on the investment and risk. Broad stock market averages have historically returned roughly 7 to 10 percent a year before inflation, but past performance does not guarantee future results.
ROI is the total percentage gain over the whole holding period. Annualized return restates that as an equivalent yearly rate, which makes it fair to compare a one-year and a five-year investment.
For a truer picture, subtract fees, commissions, and taxes from the final value before entering it. The calculator uses whatever numbers you provide.
Yes. If the final value is less than the amount invested, the ROI and profit are negative, showing a loss on the investment.
No. This is a simple start-to-finish ROI. Investments with deposits, withdrawals, or dividends in between need a more detailed measure such as internal rate of return.
