How this calculator works
ROI compares net gain with total invested capital. Annualized ROI is shown only when a valid duration is supplied.
Formula
roi = (final_value - initial_investment - additional_costs) / (initial_investment + additional_costs) * 100Example calculation
An investment of 5,000 with 6,500 final value and 250 costs has a 1,250 net gain and 23.81% ROI.
Important considerations
ROI does not capture risk, cash-flow timing, taxes, inflation, or opportunity cost.
FAQs
When is annualized ROI shown?
Only when duration is greater than zero and the investment values are valid.
