Strong return - more than doubled the investment.

How it works

ROI is (return − investment) ÷ investment × 100. It tells you how much profit you made relative to what you put in, expressed as a percentage.

Basic guide

Enter the amount invested and the return generated.

The calculator shows ROI percentage, profit and the return multiplier. You can optionally enter an investment period for the projected annualised return.

Example

With a £1,000 investment returning £2,500, the calculator shows:

Profit: £1,500
ROI: 150%
Return multiplier: 2.5×

ROI measures profit against the original cost, while the return multiplier shows how much came back for each £1 invested.
