Here is the Raw date one column dates (starting at b column, line 2 = dates
by month ), another one with one investments invest1 giving me an XIRR of -10.5%, the 2nd one Invest2 is giving me 0.0% (which is wrong), the respective fomulas are =XIRR(F36:IV36,F$2:IV$2) and =XIRR(E37:DG37,E$2:DG$2) Dates IRR Currency Nov-98 Dec-98 Jan-99 Feb-99 Mar-99 Apr-99 May-99 Jun-99 Jul-99 Aug-99 Sep-99 Oct-99 Nov-99 Dec-99 Jan-00 Feb-00 Mar-00 Apr-00 May-00 Jun-00 Jul-00 Aug-00 Sep-00 Oct-00 Nov-00 Dec-00 Jan-01 Feb-01 Mar-01 Apr-01 May-01 Jun-01 Jul-01 Aug-01 Sep-01 Oct-01 Nov-01 Dec-01 Jan-02 Feb-02 Mar-02 Apr-02 May-02 Jun-02 Jul-02 Aug-02 Sep-02 Oct-02 Nov-02 Dec-02 Jan-03 Feb-03 Mar-03 Apr-03 May-03 Jun-03 Jul-03 Aug-03 Sep-03 Oct-03 Nov-03 Dec-03 Jan-04 Feb-04 Mar-04 Apr-04 May-04 Jun-04 Jul-04 Aug-04 Sep-04 Oct-04 Nov-04 Dec-04 Jan-05 Feb-05 Mar-05 Apr-05 May-05 Jun-05 Jul-05 Aug-05 Sep-05 Oct-05 Nov-05 Dec-05 Jan-06 Feb-06 Mar-06 Apr-06 May-06 Jun-06 Jul-06 Aug-06 Sep-06 Oct-06 Nov-06 Dec-06 Jan-07 Feb-07 Mar-07 Apr-07 May-07 Jun-07 Jul-07 Aug-07 Sep-07 Oct-07 Nov-07 Dec-07 Jan-08 Feb-08 Mar-08 Apr-08 May-08 Jun-08 Jul-08 Aug-08 Sep-08 Oct-08 Nov-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Dec-08 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Jan-09 Feb-09 Feb-09 Feb-09 Feb-09 Feb-09 Feb-09 Feb-09 Feb-09 Feb-09 Feb-09 Feb-09 Feb-09 Feb-09 Feb-09 Feb-09 Feb-09 Feb-09 Feb-09 Feb-09 Feb-09 Feb-09 Feb-09 Feb-09 Feb-09 Feb-09 Feb-09 Feb-09 Feb-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Mar-09 Apr-09 Apr-09 Apr-09 Apr-09 Apr-09 Apr-09 Apr-09 Apr-09 Apr-09 Apr-09 -10.5% Invest1 Equivalent USD (0) (2,000,000) - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 1,000,000 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 0.0% Invest2 Equivalent USD (1,995,277) (2,000,000) - - - - 163,953 - (2,092,790) - - - - - - - - 172,911 68,472 (196,707) - - (5,550,825) - 114,130 - - 28,496 28,496 28,496 219,026 (179,021) - - 22,593 22,593 22,593 22,593 26,810 - (100,723) (213,634) 45,186 3,045 - 45,186 - 45,186 - - - - - 48,000 - - 3,498 34,064 - - - 34,064 (390,237) 33,047 - 82,852 - - 3,498 - - - 35,257 35,257 - - 6,262,988 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Thank you again!

Gilles,
It's still very difficult for me to decipher your data from your post. As far as I can tell, you have a series of months, and a series of cash flows, a lot of which are zero. This is not the kind of data you need to feed XIRR. Here's what you need to do: 1. Create a range with only the dates (not months, but actual dates) of each cash flow. 2. Create a similar range with only the actual cash flows. As far as I can tell, you have about 8 cash flows -- that's all you need to feed to XIRR. 3. Give this information to XIRR. If you're still having trouble, reply with the data you are passing to XIRR -- the actual series of dates, and the actual cash flows. I'll show you how to format the function arguments. XIRR does work when fed the proper data. -- Regards, Fred Please reply to newsgroup, not e-mail "Gilles" wrote in message ...
