Effective Rate Of Return = (1 + i/ n) n-1 Here; i stands for the annual interest rate N stands for the number of compounding periods It can be said that the Effective Rate Of Return determines the effect of compounding for the annual interest rate. It can be better explained this way that if an investment pays 5 percent per year but without any compounding than the effective rate of return will be 5 percent. On the other hand, if an investment is compounded monthly then the effective rate of return will be greater than 5 percent. If we move on to the importance of the effective rate of return then it is said to be important for 2 reasons. First one is that it is accurate. It is much more than estimating returns only. It helps in determining all the details that might be needed for compounding. Secondly, it is being popularly used as it is based on simple calculations of interests.
The effective rate of return helps to determine the return that will be gained on each investment and it covers up a number of marketing instruments, loans and investments. It can be said that effective rate of return is useful in determining what amount of money will be gained or lost on an investment during a given course of time. The amount that can be lost or gained might be profit, net income, interest or loss. In this way, the financial analysts are able to calculate what amount of gain or loss they will be born over the amount of money that they have invested in a particular thing over a certain time period.
How do you calculate your returns when you every year you invest different amount and at the end you receive your Money back? Suppose your invest 5000, 10000, 6000, 4000 and 6500 in 5 yrs and Get 53,000 at the end of 5 yrs then what is your Return? Its 17.4%. The concept is called IRR. Read below to understand more: So Here we will learn two things IRR and XIRR
Enter your Investments (amount which you paid) in each row (you have to put - before each value) Enter the Amount you Received at the end (put + after that amount) Formula: =IRR(values)( place your values put the range of cells which contains values) see below:
[ad#big-banner] Use this Spreadsheet to calculate IRR for yourself Things to NOTE
The values need to be a set of Positive and Negative Values The last value is the amount you receive Any amount Invested will be Negative so if you invest Rs 10000, put -10000 Any amount you Receive will be Positive so if you get Rs 5000, put +5000 All the payment or receiving of money are equidistant, Like 1st of every month OR May 15th Every year All the payments are assumed to be yearly by default. If its some other time frame like monthly or quarterly use XIRR and put specific dates.
In the above example, the CAGR return was 17%. See this video post to understand how to calculate
CAGR .
Put Date and Value for each row At the last row put the Date and amount you received Put the formula as: =XIRR(values, dates), values and dates are the cell ranges
Use this Spreadsheet to calculate XIRR for yourself In the above example the CAGR Return was 38.96% (I have multiplied the return by 100 the actual value will be .3896)
June 15 you invested 5000 July 15 you invested 6000 Aug 15 you invested 3000 Sep 15 you receive 5000 (dividend) Oct 15 you invested 4000 Nov 15 you invested 12000 Dec 15 you Sell everything and Receive 35000
You can use IRR in this case and calculate your returns , the values you will be -5000 , -6000 , 3000 , +5000 , -4000 , +12000 , Calculate the IRR and put it as comments , lets see if you are correct or not ? [ad#text-banner] Scenario 2 You can also compare two business ideas using the XIRR , and decide which one is better then other . In any business concept you have to invest money and you get back some return , but these returns can be irregular and different amount every time , In that case you can use XIRR and compare the returns of both business and decide the one which has better XIRR Note : the formula can give answers in a but different ways on Excel , OpenOffice spreadsheet , google docs or Zoho Spread sheet . Use this Spreadsheet to calculate IRR and XIRR for yourself . The spreadsheet is shared , so please dont make any changes other than values and dates .
subtracting 1 from the resulting number: 1.95 raised to 1/3 power = 1.2493. (This could be written as 1.95^0.3333). 1.2493 - 1 = 0.2493 Another way of writing 0.2493 is 24.93%. Thus, your CAGR for your three-year investment is equal to 24.93%, representing the smoothed annualized gain you earned over your investment time horizon.
