What is the difference between 'Absolute Return' and 'CAGR' as return measures for mutual funds?

0% of students got this wrong

EXPLANATION

Absolute Return = (Current Value − Investment) ÷ Investment × 100. It does not account for the time period. CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) expresses the return as an annualised rate accounting for compounding over the holding period. For investments held over 1 year, CAGR is more meaningful.
