It's the final number divided by the earlier number raised to the power of 1
over the number of annual periods. Subtract 1 from that result to get the
CAGR. In your case, assuming that both the amounts are beginning of period,
the formula would be

=25000/19000^(1/4) - 1

How can you calculate the CAGR (Compounded Annual Growth Rate)?

Say I have 2 numbers and corresponding dates as follows;

1999 - $10000

2003 - $25000

How can I determine the compounded growth from just this information?
