Hi, I need help with calculating XIRR formula
My data has deal_id, flow_date & cashflow amount. Refer to image below.
I want to calculate whenever new date detected the rate will be recalculate. For example: if the deal_id & flow_date is the same then the XIRR will be calculated. I have checked the function in the formula tool but don't quite understand it. I have attached sample data for your reference.
Really appreciate the help
Thank you in advance!!

The is an issue with your data which is that there should be at leat one negative value as per help of Microsoft Excel.
I tried with the sample in below and get the same result.

XIRR expects at least one positive cash flow and one negative cash flow; otherwise, XIRR returns the #NUM! error value.
