Calculate dollar return on investment, simple ROI percentage, and a money-weighted annualized return that accounts for recurring end-of-period contributions.
ROI Inputs
Results Overview
IRR accounts for the timing of each recurring contribution; it may be undefined when the cash-flow pattern has no unique solution.
Implied Value Path
- IRR-Implied Value
Key Insights
- Dollar ROI shows absolute profit/loss; ROI% normalizes results for comparability.
- Money-weighted IRR accounts for when recurring contributions occur; it is not the same as CAGR.
- Compare multiple scenarios by adjusting contributions and time—longer horizons amplify compounding.
Contributions are modeled at each period end. When IRR is undefined, the chart is only a linear illustration between the entered start and end values. Taxes and fees are not included.
