XIRR

Calculates the internal rate of return of an investment based on a specified series of potentially irregularly spaced cash flows.

Sample Usage

XIRR(B2:B25,C2:C25)

XIRR({-4000,200,250,300},{DATE(2012,01,01),DATE(2012,06,23),DATE(2013,05,12),DATE(2014,02,09)},0.09)

Syntax

XIRR(cashflow_amounts, cashflow_dates, [rate_guess])

  • cashflow_amounts - An array or range containing the income or payments associated with the investment.

    • cashflow_amounts must contain at least one negative and one positive cash flow to calculate rate of return.
  • cashflow_dates - An array or range with dates corresponding to the cash flows in cashflow_amounts.

  • rate_guess - [ OPTIONAL - 0.1 by default ] - An estimate for what the internal rate of return will be.

Notes

  • If the days specified in cashflow_dates are at a regular interval, use IRR instead.

  • Each cell in cashflow_amounts should be positive if it represents income from the perspective of the owner of the investment (e.g. coupons) or negative if it represents payments (e.g. loan repayment).

  • XNPV will return zero if discount is set to the result of XIRR using the same cash flow amounts and schedule.
