我写了一些代码来计算IRR,效果很好...

import scipy.optimize as optimize
import datetime


def npv(cf, rate=0.1):
    if len(cf) >= 2:
        first_date = min([x[0] for x in cf])
        dcf = [x[1] * (1 /
                       ((1 + rate) ** ((x[0] - first_date).days / 365))) for x in cf]
        return sum(dcf)
    elif len(cf) == 1:
        return cf[0][1]
    else:
        return 0


def irr(cf):
    f = lambda x: npv(cf, rate=x)
    r = optimize.newton(f, 0, maxiter=70)
    return r


...但是当我尝试这种现金流量时

cf=[(datetime.datetime(2018, 1, 10), -51089.94),
    (datetime.datetime(2022, 10, 6), 4941.0)]


我收到此错误:

但是我知道正确的答案是-38.912 ..%,我通过Excel得到了这个结果。
怎么了使用其他数据,我得到的结果与Excel IRR函数的结果相同...是否应该使用其他函数来查找参数?

附言:这是迭代参数和结果的列表(财务中的OMG复数%-)):

rate= 0.0 result= -46148.94
rate= 0.0001 result= -46151.281226688276

最佳答案

似乎newton无法正确处理此问题(不确定原因)。但是,您可以使用root来给您预期的结果,并且只需要对代码进行很小的修改即可:

import scipy.optimize as optimize
import datetime


def npv(cf, rate=0.1):
    if len(cf) >= 2:
        first_date = min([x[0] for x in cf])
        dcf = [x[1] * (1 /
                       ((1 + rate) ** ((x[0] - first_date).days / 365))) for x in cf]
        return sum(dcf)
    elif len(cf) == 1:
        return cf[0][1]
    else:
        return 0


def irr(cf):
    f = lambda x: npv(cf, rate=x)
    r = optimize.root(f, [0])
    return r

cf = [(datetime.datetime(2018, 1, 10), -51089.94),
      (datetime.datetime(2022, 10, 6), 4941.0)]

print(irr(cf))


这将打印:

    fjac: array([[-1.]])
     fun: array([-2.91038305e-11])
 message: 'The solution converged.'
    nfev: 18
     qtf: array([2.37701897e-06])
       r: array([396401.23327105])
  status: 1
 success: True
       x: array([-0.38912302])


如您所见,x包含预期的-0.38912
