Formula and methodology
Formula: Profit = proceeds - investment; ROI (%) = profit / investment x 100.
An ROI of 25% means a gain of one quarter of the entered investment cost over the entire period. Losses remain negative, and zero proceeds produce -100%. Because no cash-flow timing is supplied, the tool does not claim an annualized return or label cost divided by profit as payback years.
This result follows the calculator's declared inputs, precision, validation boundaries, and model limits.
Input contract
- Total investment cost — Include relevant acquisition and other costs consistently; must be positive.; minimum 0.01; maximum 1000000000000
- Total proceeds including recovered principal — Enter total value received, not just profit. Zero represents a total loss of the entered cost.; minimum 0; maximum 1000000000000
Worked example
| Input | Value |
|---|---|
| Total investment cost | 18000 |
| Total proceeds including recovered principal | 26000 |
ROI: 44.44%; net gain: 8000.00.
Assumptions and limits
- Proceeds include recovered principal, while investment contains the full cost being evaluated; use the same currency and scope for both.
- This is a total-period return with no annualization, reinvestment, tax, or cash-flow timing model.
- The initial cost must be positive. Losses are valid and no live valuation or future return is implied.
