I have a project where I need to compose a small portfolio of stocks based on a 5 year time horizon.

I must be able to show expected and required return, and the [expected] ending value of the investment after the 5 year period.

- How can I calculate the expected returns for five years? I only know how to do them for one year. Yahoo Finance provides the table below. Can I use the "Next 5 Years (per annum)" as a reference for expected return? Is the 64.35% number for each year, or is it the total for all five?

Growth Estimates TMUS Industry Sector(s) S&P 500
Current Qtr. 163.20% N/A N/A N/A
Next Qtr. 1,955.60% N/A N/A N/A
Current Year 233.50% N/A N/A N/A
Next Year 39.70% N/A N/A N/A
Next 5 Years (per annum) 64.35% N/A N/A N/A
Past 5 Years (per annum) -9.90%

I used this number originally, and for equal weights of eight investments (AMN, DDOG, HUM, LLY, MSFT, TMUS, UNH & VOD) comprising 60% of an investment portfolio I got an annual return of 25.11% which seems impossible. Attached below is my table of calculations. Any advice on how to do this properly would be much appreciated.
