3、rate-of-return (IRR) and adjusted internal rate-of-return (AIRR) methods are membersof a family of economic evaluation methods that provide measures of economic performance of aninvestment over time. Other methods in this family of evaluation methods are life-cycle cost analysis,net benefits and net
4、 savings analysis, benefit-to-cost and savings-to-investment ratio analysis, andpayback analysis.The IRR and AIRR methods are the topic of a single standard practice because they both measureeconomic performance as a compound yield on investment. The IRR is the compound rate of interestthat, when ap
5、plied as a discount rate to a projects stream of dollar benefits and costs, will equate them.The AIRR is the overall yield taking into account earnings on receipts reinvested to the end of thestudy period. The IRR or AIRR is compared against the investors minimum acceptable rate of return(MARR), and
6、 the investment is considered economically attractive if the calculated yield exceeds theMARR. If an investment entails an initial outlay and a single receipt at the end of the study period,there is no difference between the IRR and the AIRR. But if cash flows occur over multiple timeperiods, the tw
7、o will normally be different. This arises because the AIRR includes in its measure thereturn on reinvestment of receipts, whereas the IRR does not.The AIRR is recommended for most applications in which a measure of yield is desired. Cautionis recommended in applying either measure, however, because

Significance and Use5.1 The IRR method has been used traditionally in financeand economics to measure the percentage yield on investment.5.1.1 The IRR method is appropriate in most ca
22、ses forevaluating whether a given building or building system will beeconomically efficient, that is, whether its time-adjusted ben-efits will exceed its time-adjusted costs over the period ofconcern to the decision maker. However, it has deficiencies thatlimit its usefulness in choosing among proje
23、cts competing fora limited budget.5.2 The AIRR method is a measure of the overall rate ofreturn that an investor can expect from an investment over adesignated study period. It is appropriate both for evaluatingwhether a given building or building system will be economi-cally efficient and for choos
24、ing among alternatives competingfor a limited budget.5.2.1 TheAIRR method overcomes some, but not all, of thedeficiencies of the IRR. The AIRR is particularly recom-mended over the IRR for allocating limited funding amongcompeting projects.6. Procedure6.1 The recommended steps for applying the IRR o
25、r theAIRR method to an investment decision are summarized asfollows:6.1.1 Identify objectives, constraints, and alternatives.6.1.2 Compile data and establish assumptions.6.1.3 Compute IRR or AIRR based on a comparison of twoalternatives (one of which may be to do nothing).6.1.4 Compare the computed
26、IRR or AIRR against theMARR to determine the acceptability of the alternative withthe higher investment cost.6.1.5 If a limited budget is to be allocated among competingalternatives, select alternatives in descending order of theirIRR or AIRR measures until the budget is exhausted.6.1.6 Report the r
27、esults.7. Objectives, Constraints, and Alternatives7.1 Specify clearly the objective of the economic analysis.7.1.1 Suppose, for example, an individual or organizationhas funds on hand to invest in real estate projects. The problemis which projects to choose from potential candidates. Theobjective o
28、f the economic analysis in this case is to identify theproject or set of projects within the budget that is expected tomaximize profits over the long run.7.2 Identify any constraints that narrow the field of candi-dates.7.2.1 Constraints, for example, might include a budget of$1 000 000; a geographi
29、cal limitation to buildings locatedwithin 100 km from downtown; and a strong preference fornonresidential property.7.3 Identify feasible alternatives.7.3.1 Feasible alternatives include an office building in thesuburbs costing $1 000 000; convenience shopping strips innearby towns costing a total of
30、 $900 000; two medical/dentaloffices costing $500 000 each; and a $1 000 000 investmentshare in a downtown shopping complex.8. Data and Assumption8.1 To calculate the IRR or AIRR, data are needed.8.2 Benefit and cost data that are often relevant whencalculating the IRR or AIRR are revenues, resale o

Order Adjunct No.ADJE091703.E105706e12value, subsidies (for example, grants), and costs of planning,design, engineering, construction, purchase, installation, opera-tion and maintenance, utilities, and repairs and replacement.8.3 The time of
32、occurrence of each benefit and cost is alsoneeded.8.4 Taxes such as tax credits, property taxes, and incometaxes are also often relevant because they affect benefits andcosts. If benefits and costs are adjusted for taxes, the IRR orAIRR measure gives the after-tax rate of return.8.5 If the terms of
33、financing are unique to each alternative,financing costs (and associated tax effects) should also be takeninto account.8.6 Choose a minimum acceptable rate of return (MARR)for comparison against the calculated IRR or AIRR.8.6.1 The appropriate MARR indicates the investors op-portunity cost of forego
34、ing the return on the next best invest-ment opportunity in order to invest in the project in question.8.7 If the AIRR is used, a reinvestment rate is needed.8.7.1 The reinvestment rate is usually set equal to theMARR; hence, it equals the discount rate. This is because thereinvestment rate is an ind
35、icator of future opportunity cost, andthat is also the purpose of the discount rate. Setting thereinvestment rate and the discount rate equal makes thereinvestment rate assumption in the AIRR method consistentwith the reinvestment rate assumption that is implicit in the netbenefits (net savings) met
36、hod (Practice E 1074).9. IRR Calculation9.1 The IRR is the compound rate of interest that, whenused to discount a projects cash flows, will reduce the presentvalue of net benefits (PVNB) to zero. (See Practice E 1074 fora discussion of how to compute the PVNB.) The solution valueof i* in Eq 1 is the
37、 IRR. It is computed as a decimal, thenexpressed as a percent.9.1.1 Find the value of i* for which:PVNB 5(t 5 0NBt2 Ct!/1 1 i*!t5 0 (1)where:PVNB = present value of net benefits (or, if applied to acost-reducing investment, present value of netsavings (PVNS),N = number of discounting periods in the
38、study period,Bt= dollar value of benefits in period t for the buildingor system evaluated less the counterpart benefitsin period t for the mutually exclusive alternativeagainst which it is compared,Ct= dollar costs, including investment costs, in periodt for the building or system evaluated less the
39、counterpart costs in period t for the mutuallyexclusive alternative against which it is compared,andi* = interest rate for which PVNB = 0, that is, the IRRmeasure expressed as a decimal.9.2 An algebraic solution of i* is not possible with Eq 1 forall values of N. Use a computer program with built-in
40、 formulasto calculate IRR and AIRR. Or, use a manual approach toapproximate the IRR such as the trial-and-error approach, thegraphical approach, and an approach that uses simple paybackand uniform present value (UPV) factor tables. (See PracticeE 1121 for a description of payback and the Adjunct onD
41、iscount Factor Tables for UPV factors.)9.2.1 Trial and Error Solution:9.2.1.1 The trial-and-error approach to calculating the IRRentails choosing a trial rate of interest that is expectedapproximately to balance benefits and costs over the projectstudy period. Then present value calculations are mad
42、e for thattrial rate. (For an illustration of discounting calculations, seePractice E 917.) If the PVNB is zero, then the trial rate is thesolution value of the internal rate of return. If the PVNB isnegative, the trial rate is too high, and a second, lower trial rateis then used. If the PVNB is pos
43、itive for the original trial rate,then the IRR is higher than the trial rate, and a second, highertrial rate is used. When two trial rates are found such that oneyields a PVNB greater than zero and the other a PVNB lessthan zero, the IRR lies between those rates and can beapproximated by interpolati
44、on, provided the investment has aunique IRR. Considerable time is saved in the trial-and-errorapproach if the first trial rate is close to the true rate. Oneapproach is to start with the MARR as the trial rate. If thePVNB is negative with the MARR, then the project is noteconomically feasible, and n
45、o further calculations are neces-sary. If the PVNB is positive, then select higher trial rates in anattempt to bound the true rate.9.2.1.2 The UPV factor tables are useful in finding a trialrate. The first step is to sum the undiscounted cash flows (notincluding the initial cost) and divide the sum
46、by the number ofyears in the study period (excluding any planning/design/construction period) to obtain an average annual cash flow.Then divide the initial project cost by the average to obtain arough estimate of simple payback (SPB). The second step is tosearch the UPV discount factor tables in the
47、 row that corre-sponds to the study period for the UPV factor that is closest tothe estimated SPB. (Again exclude any years in the planning/design/construction period.) The rate that appears at the top ofthe column in which the UPV factor is found is a promisingtrial rate. The more uniform the annua
48、l cash flow, the morelikely that this trial rate will be close to the solution rate.9.2.1.3 Table 1 illustrates the trial-and-error approach forcalculating the IRR for an initial investment that yields anuneven yearly cash flow over four years. Columns 2 and 3 listthe dollar values of benefits and c
49、osts that accrue in each of thefour years, and Column 4 shows the net cash flow for each ofthose years, including the initial investment.9.2.1.4 From inspecting Column 4 in Table 1, one mightexpect a relatively high return over four years. Using theapproach described in 9.2.1.2 to select a trial rate, the calcu-lated UPV value for four years corresponds in the Adjunctdiscount tables most closely to a rate of 25 %. Multiplyingyearly net cash flows by single present value (SPV) factors foreach year based on a 25 % discount rate (Column 5) convertsthem to equiva
