    Excellent lectures John, thanks.
    Question: Is it possible for one investment to have 2 IRRs?
    If yes explain please.

    Yes it is. There is potentially one IRR for every change of sign in the cash flows.

    So for example, if the cash flows are:

    0 (10,000)
    1 20,000
    3 (8,000)

    The flows change from negative to positive, and then from positive to negative, so 2 changes of sign and therefore possibly (but not necessarily) two IRR’s.

    However you could not be expected to calculate the IRR’s in this case in the exam.
