چکیده

We consider the internal rate of return (IRR) decision rule in capital budgeting problems with fuzzy cash flows. The possibility distribution of the IRR at any r ≥ 0, is defined to be the degree of possibility that the (fuzzy) net present value of the project with discount factor r equals to zero. We show that the possibility distribution of the IRR is a highly nonlinear function of quasi-triangular form. Furthermore we prove that the fuzzy IRR is stable under small changes in the membership functions of future cash flows.

A heuristic method to calculate the real internal rate of return (RIRR)

The Internal Rate of Return (IRR) is used in economics as a popular method for project evaluation. Its major challenge, however, is to calculate all real rates. This paper presents an algorithm that can be used to calculate all return rates through introducing a heuristic approach based on several mathematical theorems. In order to better understand the different steps of the proposed algorithm...
