  Internal rate of return (IRR)
IRR has a simply stated definition: "The IRR for an investment is the discount rate for which the total present value of future cash flows equals the cost of the investment." It is the interest rate, that is that produces a 0 NPV.
IRR has the most meaning when there is an initial net cash outflow, followed at least one period with a net positive cash inflow.
IRR cannot be calculated with outflows only, or inflows only; IRR is thus not applicable to "cost only" analyses (such as the typical cost of ownership analysis).
