Default Re: XIRR Function<Found it>

Does anybody know of a online tool or calculator that can be used by
plugging in the contribution amounts & dates? Thanks ~Marty~

There are about 100 copies of Office 2000 (which is the disk you need)
for sale on eBaby but the software costs about $100. I Googled "IRR
Function" and found one site that offers onlince calculations.

Hey Frank
I found the site for the IRR function too,But I am fairly certain I need
the XIRR function, which I can not find an online tool.Thanks
~Marty~

Marty,
How about this one: http://www.datadynamica.com/irr.asp
There is a way to create an IRR function in Excel but it requires the
"solver" function which you probably don't have.
Frank

Hi group

I found what I was looking for.Maybe this will help all my fellow
feds.Thanks Frank & everybody.

I don't know if you can install the ATP without the original disk. And you
won't get that with a new computer (unless you purchase the program with
the computer).

Perhaps the person who gave you the computer has the disks?

Hey Ron

Thanks for all your help.The Add On prompt (Anylasas Tool Pack) does say
to insert the Disc for that program.

My old jalopy computer was given to me,so there is no original Excel
disks.I will eventually buy a new computer,but probably not until next
year.

Another possibility -- pay via profit sharing plans calculated
quarterly which result in constant monthly plus variable quarterly
contributions to the 401K.

from my version (Excel 2000; 9.0.2720):
If this function is not available, run the Setup program to install the
Analysis ToolPak. After you install the Analysis ToolPak, you must enable it
by using the Add-Ins command on the Tools menu.

If you have Excel 2000, are you sure the prompts for installing the
Analysis Tool Pak say you have to INSTALL Office 2000, or do they say you
need to insert the Disk for that program.

Whatever, it should be available on your original Excel disks. And if this
was an OEM install, your OEM should have sent you the disks with the
computer.

At least one reason:

People who are paid at an hourly rate, or who work overtime as non-exempt
personnel have paychecks that vary from pay period to pay period. Most 401k
contributions are a percentage, so the amount contributed will also vary.

I don't know about a web site, but XIRR has been part of Excel for ten

I cant install it.The prompts state that I need to install Microsoft
Office 2000.I guess if this program is very small, my computer might be
able to install it.Now I have to figure out how to install it.It states
I need the disc.Maybe I will try Office Max.Thanks Ron.If you have any

No, but straight-line depreciation of the percentage of your computer
used for supporting investment income is potentially deductible on your
personal 1040 Schedule A, subject to 2% AGI floor.... maybe time to buy
a new computer?

Never heard of "downloading" the XIRR function... what version of Excel
are you running?

Most salary-deferral plans, such as 401k, involve predictable deductions
from your paycheck... is there some reason why you are making
"irregular" contributions to your 401k?

Too old?

I don't know about a web site, but XIRR has been part of Excel for ten to
fifteen years. I know it was part of Excel 4.0 (1992) It doesn't have to
be "downloaded" but is part of the Analysis Tool Pak that has been

Default XIRR Function

My computer is too old to download the XIRR function in Exel to
calculate quarterly returns from contributions made at irregular
intervals & amounts to my 401k.

Does anybody know of a online tool or calculator that can be used by
plugging in the contribution amounts & dates? Thanks

~Marty~
