XIRR Formula
XIRR is the rate that makes the net present value of all dated cash flows equal to zero. In simple words, it finds the annual return after considering both amount and timing.
The result is annualized, so it can be compared with CAGR, FD return, mutual fund return or other yearly performance measures. For fixed periodic cash flows, IRR may be enough. For real-world cash flows with different dates, XIRR is usually more accurate.
