Growth rate calculator

Enter a starting and ending value, and the number of periods between them, to see total growth and the average rate per period.

Total growth50%
Compound growth per period10.7%

The formula

Total growth = (end − start) ÷ start. Compound growth per period = (end ÷ start)^(1 ÷ periods) − 1.

How to use it

  • Use periods of equal length, such as months or quarters.
  • Compound growth smooths uneven periods into one steady rate.
  • For a negative result, the value fell: the same formula applies.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between growth rate and compound growth rate?
