How to Use
- Enter the initial value of the asset (purchase price).
- Enter the final value of the asset (current value or sale price).
- Enter the holding period in years and click calculate to get total and annual appreciation rates.
Tips
- If the final value is lower than the initial value, the result will be negative and indicates depreciation.
- CAGR smooths short-term volatility and is useful for evaluating long-term performance.
Calculation Principles & Formulas
Total Appreciation Rate formula:
Total Appreciation = (Final Value - Initial Value) / Initial Value
Annual Appreciation Rate (Compound Annual Growth Rate, CAGR) formula:
Annual Appreciation = (Final Value / Initial Value)^(1 / Years) - 1
The annual appreciation rate accounts for compounding effects and provides a more accurate measure of long-term asset performance.
