Try: Total gain=15000, Total cost=10000 → $15,000, $10,000, $5,000, 50.00%

How to use

Return on investment measures profit relative to cost. It ignores time, so a 50% ROI over 10 years is very different from 50% in a month.

Formula

ROI = (Gain − Cost) / Cost

FAQ

Does ROI account for time?

No. For time-adjusted returns use CAGR or IRR.

Should I include all costs?

Yes — fees, taxes and hidden costs give a truer ROI.
