annualized
Converted to yearly
Annualized describes a figure projected or converted to represent a full year.
A quarterly return of 3% becomes an annualized rate of roughly 12%.
The term appears frequently in finance and statistics when comparing periods of different lengths: annualized inflation, annualized growth rate, annualized salary.
It standardizes data for easier comparison across timeframes.
