A

Estimate the cash flow
Estimate the exit value
Select a discount rate

Q

How is the IRR calculated?

A
  1. Input current MV as a negative cash flow
  2. Input projected rents over holding period as a positive value
  3. Input projected exit value at end of term assumed as positive value
  4. IRR is the rate chose which provides a NPV of 0
  5. If NPV is more than zero, then target rate of return is met.
