    Sir ,

    To determine sensitivity analysis there are two methods:

    One is to determine the %age change in a project variable which results in a -NPV
    to my understanding that means IRR. (If I am not wrong)

    The other method determines the %age change in NPV which results from a fixed %age change
    can u please explain me this with an example.

    Thank you.

    Sensitivity is calculated as the NPV divided by the PV of the flows that are changing.

    I explain this, with examples, in my free lectures on investment appraisal under uncertainty.

    The lectures are a complete free course for Paper F9 and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.
