ROI Calculator: Why Annualized Return Matters More Than Total Return
About This Tool
Free ROI (return on investment) calculator — enter your initial investment cost and final (or current) value to instantly calculate your total return as a percentage, the net profit or loss, and the annualized ROI if you provide a holding period. ROI is one of the most widely used metrics in business and investing because it's simple and comparable across very different types of investments — stocks, real estate, marketing campaigns, or a small business purchase can all be measured on the same percentage scale. This tool also calculates annualized ROI, which corrects for the fact that a 50% return over 5 years is very different from a 50% return over 6 months. Runs entirely in your browser — no data is uploaded or stored.
