Default Calculating Hypothetical Growth of $10,000 in Excel

I keep track of the percentage gains/losses of mutual funds in excel. How do
I create a formula that will tell me the growth of $10,000 over a period of
time based on percentage gains/losses (like what you see on Morningstar)?

Thanks

I'm not familiar with Morningstar's data and so am not sure what you're
asking. Can you provide a link to relevant data?

So do you want to create a similar chart?

Just set up a table:
Year $value %increase
1 $10,000 .05
2 =B2*(1+C2) .12
3 =B3*(1+C3)


etc.
