XIRR formula

Amds · Mar 23rd, 2002, 01:16 AM

I have the following formula :-

=ROUND((XIRR({-198567.26,4750,204032},{36257,36295,37315},0.1)*100),2)

How can it be re-written so that the figures 204032 and 37315 can be replaced by cell refs ?

Constants of a constant array cannot be variablized, that is, replaced with cell refs. It seems you want to experiment with defferent values. I'd suggest placing the values in your constant arrays in columnar ranges of their own, which you can change at will:

=ROUND((XIRR(A2:A4,B2:B4,0.1)*100),2)

where A2:A4 houses the values

-198567.26
4750
204032

and B2:B4 the date values

36257
36295
37315

formatted as date.

Thanks.
That's what I thought ("Constants of a constant array cannot be variablized, that is, replaced with cell refs") .... but was hoping it was possible.
I suppose I'll just either have to rearrange my data so as to be able to use cell refs for all, or live with all hard values in the formula.
