fin.dollar-cost-average Calculator
Calculates the average cost per share and total portfolio value from a dollar-cost averaging schedule at varying price points. DCA reduces the risk of a catastrophic entry at a market peak — the average cost per share is always below the simple average of prices.
Inputs
Amount
Reference formula or conversion factor shown for context.
Months

Results
average cost per share
The arithmetic mean -- sum divided by count.
shares accumulated
The value at the specified point or condition.
total invested
The combined total across all inputs and components.
current value
Electric charge flow rate (A). Governs wire sizing — too much current causes dangerous heating. Fuses protect circuits from overcurrent.
unrealized P&L
Sample size or count used in the calculation.
ROI
