Description

This tag mimics the XIRR function found in Excel and other spreadsheets. It uses the XNPV tag, included, which can be used standalone.

It is a re-write of two of the functions in:

Sample Usage

// array of dates
var: 'date1' = (date: '2008-01-01') ;
var: 'date2' = (date: '2008-03-01') ;
var: 'date3' = (date: '2008-10-30') ;
var: 'date4' = (date: '2009-02-15') ;
var: 'date5' = (date: '2009-04-01') ;
// array of values
var: 'values' = array(-10000,2750,4250,3250,2750) ;
var: 'dates' = array( $date1, $date2, $date3, $date4, $date5) ;
Ex_xirr(-values=$values, -dates=$dates) ;
