What Percent To Goal Means

Percent to goal measures how much progress has been made toward a target value. It is useful for goals, milestones, savings, and performance tracking.

How to Calculate Percent To Goal

  1. Divide the current value by the goal value.
  2. Multiply by 100 to get percent complete.
  3. Subtract the current value from the goal to find what remains.
  4. Optionally calculate the percent remaining using the same goal value.
percent complete = (current / goal) x 100

Worked Example

Example: $750 toward a $1000 goal is 75% complete.

(750 / 1000) x 100 = 75%
