Quick Answer

Annualized return (XIRR)10.57 %

Duration 2.00 years · XNPV check -0.0000

Newton-Raphson iteration until NPV = 0

How it works

  1. 1NPV(r) = sum of Ci / (1+r)^(days_i/365) = 0
  2. 2Newton step: r <- r - NPV(r) / NPV'(r), repeat until converged
  3. 3Result: annualized 10.57% over 2.00 years

Sign convention

Cash outflow (buy/invest/top-up) is negative; inflow (redeem/dividend/maturity) is positive. All-positive or all-negative flows have no solution.

XIRR annualizes with actual-day weighting, so it differs from simple IRR on equal intervals when flows are irregular — it is the standard for DCA plans, bond coupon schedules, and private-fund statements. Compare with Excel's XIRR(values, dates) — same algorithm (Newton-Raphson). If iteration fails to converge, check that signs alternate and the final flow nets positive for a profitable trade (or negative for a loss).
