12345 2001-05-11 05:46:00 A simple method for calculating return is:

r = [(end value - start value)/start value] / t

where t = time period in years

e.g. invest $10 and get $11 after 1 year

r = 10%

You will probably need something more advanced if you wish to account for deposits made during the year (try financial functions).
