Rate of Return & Costs

If you only invest in one asset type (Stocks, Bonds, GICs, etc.) estimating your rate of return is fairly straightforward. But, what if you invest differing amounts in two or more asset types? Calculating your rate of return isn’t so easy is it? The rate of return and costs calculator can help determine what your net rate of return is on your investments.
