摘要:The paper discusses the problem of the so called multiple internal
rate of return with special emphasis of the author on the present
attempts to solve the problem. Considering that none of the current
numerous efforts to solve the problem of the multiple internal rate
of return have provided a comprehensive solution to it, the author
suggests a new approach and solution. The proposed and completely
new integral method of calculating IRR and its redefining (as
a rate that does not make the net present value equal to zero) enables
each individual case, regardless of the character of the cash
flow, to calculate the central rate and the corresponding central net
present value. Central discount rate (C) represents IRR defined as
the average rate of compounding of the investment with precondition
of reinvestment. Besides, this method avoids the problem of
the multiple IRR, while total (all) value of the area below the curve
of the interdependent discount rates and net present value is more
comprehensive and more real representative of the value of the
NPV (Net Present Value) because the calculation takes into account
all discount rates in the observed range. Finally, the method solves
the problem of the appearance of the so called nonexistent IRR.
