Formula: CAGR = (end ÷ begin)^(1/years) − 1

Step-by-step with your numbers:

1. Values used:

2. Beginning value = 1,000 $

The smooth yearly rate that would grow your start value to the end value.

The math behind it

CAGR = (end ÷ begin)^(1/years) − 1.

$1,000 → $2,000 over 5 years → 14.87%/yr.

Why not just total return ÷ years?

That ignores compounding; CAGR is the true annualized rate.
