| todolist | IRR discounted future cashflows to present values |
| DannyZhou | So MV is PV of future cash flow without taking into consideration of initial cash outflow? |
| robbiecow | MV = PV(future CF) - Initial Outlay |
| stevo | If [MV = PV(FCF) - Initial outlay] and the question is [MV - Cost] then essentially the question is asking [PV(FCF) - initial outlay - cost] ? |
I am happy to say that I passed! Your study notes certainly helped prepare me for what was the most difficult exam I had ever taken.
