PV=Present Value
FV=Future Value
i=interest rate
n=number of periods

I just then plug these numbers into my HP 12 c Calculator (you can use excel or a cheaper calculator if you like)

For your example if you invested 100 dollars in 10 years you would have

PV= -100
i=8
n=20
FV=466.10

Realize that your annual interest rate is higher that 8%

But that is how you would calculate returns
