Think of a series of events like this:
- event 1: out cash flow to buy a 240k€ photovoltaic plant with my money (liquid) [event 1 = -240000€ | cell C1]
- event 2 to 21, one on each subsequent year: the PV plant gives me back 35k€ a year [event 2 =+35000€ | cell C2],........ [event n =+35000€ | cell C21]
- event 22: I spend 20k€ to get the PV plant dismantled [event 22 =-20000 | cell C22]
If I want to know the interest paid back by this investment I use the function TIR.COST(C1:C22,0.1) and I get something around 13%.
Now let's say I don't want to use my money to buy the PV so I get a loan from the bank at the interest rate of 5% for 20 years.
How can I calculate the interest paid back by the PV, considering also the financial costs of the loan, taking into account that yearly I will have
to pay back the bank with 18.000€?
Not being an expert, this is what I thought to do:
- event 1 (C1) = zero This is because the bank is paying the PV [C1 = 0]
- event 2 to 21, one on each subsequent year: the PV plant gives me back 35k€ a year and I have to give the bank 18k€ so [event 2 =+35000-18000=17000€ | cell C2],........ [event n =+17000€ | cell C21]
- event 22: I spend 20k€ to get the PV plant dismantled [event 22 =-20000 | cell C22]
But if I use the same TIR.COST function as before [TIR.COST(C1:C22,0.1)] I get something around 0.00000048%: what am I doing wrong?
Thanks.
