Quick answer: the ROI formula

ROI = net profit ÷ cost × 100. Investing ₹5,00,000 (plus ₹5,000 costs) and receiving ₹7,25,000 after 4 years is an ROI of 43.56%, about 9.46% a year.

Overview of the ROI Calculator

Return on investment (ROI) measures how much you gained relative to what you spent. Enter the amount invested, the final value and any extra costs or fees, and the calculator shows the net profit and ROI. Add the holding period to see the annualized return, which lets you compare investments of different lengths.

ROI ignores risk and the time value of money, so use annualized return and the IRR Calculator for uneven cash flows. See the Average Return Calculator for several years of results.

How We Calculate

The calculator applies the standard financial formulas step by step.

  1. Total cost = amount invested + extra costs and fees.
  2. Net profit = final value − total cost.
  3. ROI = net profit ÷ total cost × 100.
  4. Annualized ROI (CAGR) = (final value ÷ total cost)^(1 ÷ years) − 1.
ROI = (final value − cost) ÷ cost × 100
annualized = (final ÷ cost)^(1/years) − 1
