Your example solve half of my problem. On top of the annual growth rate (which may be negative), I have re-investment each year which complicate the computation of my real compounded return rate. For example: Year 1 (initial capital: 100, yearly return: 10%) Year 2 (reinvest 50, yearly return: -2%) Year 3 (reinvest 100, yearly return: 15%) What is my compounded return at end of year 3??? Please help. I have been searching the formula to compute my compounded return of my investment. Your example solve half of my problem.

On top of the annual growth rate (which may be negative), I have re-investment each year which complicate the computation of my real compounded return rate.

For example:

Year 1 (initial capital: 100, yearly return: 10%)
Year 2 (reinvest 50, yearly return: -2%)
Year 3 (reinvest 100, yearly return: 15%)

What is my compounded return at end of year 3???

Please help.
