This percentage makes it easy to compare the capital gains component of your return to other investment alternatives. It uses your actual holding period so the number reflects your real situation, not a hypothetical timeline.
Detailed Explanation
Return If Sold expresses the profit from a hypothetical sale today as a percentage of your initial cash investment, using actual years of ownership. This shows the total capital gains return on your cash outlay based on your real holding period rather than a fixed 5-year projection.
