Enter the reinvestment amount ($) and the total investment amount ($) into the Reinvestment Rate Calculator. The calculator will evaluate the Reinvestment Rate. 

Reinvestment Rate Formula

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

RIR = RA / IA * 100
  • Where RIR is the Reinvestment Rate (%)
  • RA is the reinvestment amount ($) 
  • IA is the total investment amount ($) 

To calculate the reinvestment rate, divide the reinvestment amount by the initial investment amount, then multiply by 100.

How to Calculate Reinvestment Rate?

The following example problems outline how to calculate Reinvestment Rate.

Example Problem #1:

  1. First, determine the reinvestment amount ($).
    • The reinvestment amount ($) is given as: 3,000.
  2. Next, determine the total investment amount ($).
    • The total investment amount ($) is provided as: 100,000.
  3. Finally, calculate the Reinvestment Rate using the equation above: 

RIR = RA / IA * 100

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

RIR = 3,000 / 100,000 * 100 = 3.00 (%)


Example Problem #2: 

For this problem, the variables required are provided below:

reinvestment amount ($) = 4,000

total investment amount ($) = 40,000

Test your knowledge using the equation and check your answer with the calculator..

RIR = RA / IA * 100 = ?
