I would like to calculate the combined IRR of the following:
a) $50 million principal indexed by 2% p.a. compounding over 10 years
b) $50 million principal with a coupon return of 8% p.a. no compounding over 10 years. Principal paid back at year 10.
The IRR for each of these is 2% ane 8%, so why isnt the combined IRR 10%? The xirr formula in excel calculates it to be 9.41%. See calculation set out below.
Thanks in advance for your help / explanation.
