FAQ
Can CAGR be negative?
Yes, if the final value is lower than the initial value.
Can I use months instead of years?
Convert the period into years (e.g., 18 months = 1.5 years).
What if the initial value is zero?
CAGR is undefined when the starting value is zero.
Additional Information
- Formula: CAGR = [(Final ÷ Initial)^(1/Years) − 1] × 100.
- CAGR smooths out growth rates to a yearly average.
- Values must be positive and initial cannot be zero.
