Default I think I got it


-----Original Message-----
If I invest $200,000
And end up with $250,000
I've recieved a 25% rate of return(This is easy on
calculator)

If I know the beginning dollar value, and the ending
dollar value, what formula could I use to calculate this
25% ROR?

Thanks a lot. Scott
.
I just ended up dividing the equity by the original

investment. I think this should be OK. Thanks
