Determine the minimum and maximum internal rate of return for the following cash flow. Use Excel.
Year | Net Cash |
0 | -2500 |
1 | 1500 |
2 | 1000 |
3 | -1500 |
4 | 900 |
5 | 500 |
For the project with the following cash flows ,
Year |
Net CF |
0 |
-2500 |
1 |
1500 |
2 |
1000 |
3 |
-1500 |
4 |
900 |
5 |
500 |
The IRR is calculated as
=IRR($C$4:$C$9,F5)
Where the range is the range of Cashflows and the rate is the Guess rate for the multiple IRR
So we get the Minimum IRR = -2%
Year |
Net CF |
0 |
-2500 |
1 |
1500 |
2 |
1000 |
3 |
-1500 |
4 |
900 |
5 |
500 |
IRR |
-2% |
If we plot the data of NPV at various discount rate
And then plot them in IRR graph as
We find the maximum IRR approaches to infinity
.
