The compound growth rate for a pair of values, V1 and V2, and a number of time periods, n, is the constant growth rate, g, that will cause V1 to grow to V2 over n time periods. In equation form, g must satisfy If you know V1, V2, and n, then you can solve for g: The following examples can help explain the uses of the compound growth rate formulas.
