What the fee actually costs

An expense ratio of 0.03% works out to about $30.00 a year on a $100,000.00 position. It is deducted from fund assets, so you never see an invoice — but it compounds against you every year you hold.

Against a reported 10.20% gross return, that leaves roughly 10.17% net of fund costs before tax and before any platform or brokerage charges.
