Enter the current value ($) and the initial value ($) into the Appreciation Rate Calculator. The calculator will evaluate the Appreciation Rate.

Appreciation Rate Formula

The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the Appreciation Rate.

AR = (CV-IV) / IV * 100

• Where AR is the Appreciation Rate (%)
• CV is the current value ($) • IV is the initial value ($)

How to Calculate Appreciation Rate?

The following example problems outline how to calculate Appreciation Rate.

Example Problem #1:

1. First, determine the current value ($). • The current value ($) is given as: 30,000.
2. Next, determine the initial value ($). • The initial value ($) is provided as: 20,000.
3. Finally, calculate the Appreciation Rate using the equation above:

AR = (CV-IV) / IV * 100

The values provided above are inserted into the equation below and computed.

AR = (30,000-20,000) / 20,000 * 100 = 50 (%)

Example Problem #2:

For this problem, the variables required are provided below:

current value ($) = 50,000 initial value ($) = 70,000
