You can an online IRR Calculator as the one mentioned in the related section below or you can manually calculate IRR. Manual calculation requires Trial and Error method where we first find two rates at which one NPV is negative and the other positive. Once we have these two rates, we use linear interpolation to approximate the IRR
As an example, say you were considering a project that had an initial cost of $500,000 and you would be expecting six cash inflows at the end of each of the next six year in the following amount $120,000 $115,500 $130,000 $116,500 $117,250 and $200,000.
Here are the calculations as you can get from an online irr calculation tool listed in related link below

DCF5 = 117250/(1+11%)5 = 117250/1.68506 = 69582.17

IRR with Linear InterpolationiL = 11%iU = 16%
npvL = 50157.88
npvU = -25176.29irr = iL + [(iU-iL)(npvL)] / [npvL-npvU]
irr = 0.11 + [(0.16-0.11)(50157.88)] / [50157.88--25176.29]
irr = 0.11 + [(0.05)(50157.88)] / [75334.17]
irr = 0.11 + 2507.894 / 75334.17
irr = 0.11 + 0.0333
irr = 0.1433
irr = 14.33%

What is ungeared IRR?
irr after interest
How tall is Tim Irr?
Tim Irr is 6' 1 1/2".
Additivity property of IRR?
You should not be ADDICTED to property of IRR anyways!!stop it!! well you cant...
When was Christopher Irr born?
Christopher Irr was born on September 13, 1984, in Portsmouth, Virginia, USA.
What is IRR reinvestment rate assumption?
The IRR reinvestment rate assumption is the mistaken assumption that the IRR of a project implicitly assumes that all positive cash flows from the project that occur in periods before the end of the project will be reinvested at the rate of IRR per period until the end of the project.
What is the effect on IRR if cost of capital decreased?
A change in the cost of capital will not, typically, impact on the IRR. IRR is measure of the annualised effective interest rate, or discount rate, required for the net present values of a stream of cash flows to equal zero. The IRR will not be affected by the cost of capital; instead you should compare the IRR to the cost of capital when making investment decisions. If the IRR is higher than the cost of capital the project/investment should be viable (i.e. should have a positive net present value - NPV). If the IRR is lower than the cost of capital it should not be undertaken. So, whilst a higher cost of capital will not change the IRR it will lead to fewer investment decisions being acceptable when using IRR as the method of assessing those investment decisions.
Why is the NPV approach often regarded to be superior to the IRR method?
Why is the NPV approach often regarded to be superior to the IRR method?
What does the prefix irr mean?
The prefix "irr" typically means not or without, suggesting a lack of correctness or regularity in the word it precedes.
IRR VS NPV?
IRR: Internal rate return NPV: Net present value Both are measure of the viability of a project(s) You can have multiple IRR (because of discontinued cash flows) but you always have one NPV.
Distinguish between IRR and ARR method in capital budgeting?
arr is for 1year only..irr can be for a period of 1 or more years
What are the disadvantages of IRR method?
In the IRR method, the intermediate cash inflows are assumed to be consumed and so are not reinvested. The unmodified IRR method, as compared with the NPV method, will not show the superiority of any two mutually exclusive investments with two different initial outlays. In such a case, an investment with lower IRR could have a higher NPV and therefore should be chosen by an investor. In some cases where there are streams of positive and negative cash flows in an investment, the IRR method may yield more than one IRR. This is not a disadvantage if the calculations are performed correctly.
What does IRR stand for?
Internal Rate of Return
