I have a purchase price, I show as a negative number. I show a periodical payment received as a cash flow, then I have the sale price 16 months later.
I can set this up on a T-bar and calculate it, but I want a formula in excel where I can just plug in the numbers. What do I use?

NPV wants a rate, and that's what I'm looking for.
I'd think IRR would be better, because it has a reversion or sale price involved, but I can't get that to work.

I believe that IRR will work.
List the numbers and let me try it.

the purchase price was (185000), 200 monthly cash flow for 16 months, sale at the end of month 16 was $215,000

I get the answer to be 13.2% for the annual IRR
To get there, put your cashflows into a matrix and do a straight forward IRR on it. Then take that result and convert to an annual compoud rate: (1+IRR)^12 - 1.

You're not even going to admit that 1TC e-mailed you the answer?
