Actually, I just input my annual contributions in a spreadsheet, then my total asset value in another column, and finally back compute my average annual return. bgr, that sounds like you count your employers contribution as an investment gain. "my annual contributions" appears to exclude the company's annual contribution. "total asset value" appears to include your employer's contribution. the employer contribution, and the gains thereof, should not be counted as investment gain. that is like inheriting $1 million, losing it all and saying you broke even. -lol- maybe the terminology was vague and led me to the wrong conclusion. please clarify...
