a liquid account. The figure generally used is a short-term security (T-bill)
or bank passbook rate. Positive cash flows are reinvested at a
reinvestment rate that reflects the return on an investment of comparable
risk. An average return rate on recent market investments might be used.

1. In the CFLO menu, calculate the present value of the negative cash

flows (

NPV) at the safe rate and store the result in register 0. Enter

zero for any cash flow that is positive.

2. Calculate the future value of the positive cash flows (NFV) at the

reinvestment rate and store the result in register 1. Enter zero for any
cash flow that is negative.

3. In the TVM menu, store the total number of periods in N, the NPV

result in

PV, and the NFV result in FV.

4. Press

to calculate the periodic interest rate. This is the

modified internal rate of return, MIRR.

the following cash flows:
