Casio fx-5800P: Cash Flow Program (Pierre Gillet)

Casio fx-5800P:  Cash Flow Program (Pierre Gillet)

Introduction:  Cash Flows Using the Stat List

Today's program comes from Pierre Gillet, who emailed me a set of programs to calculate net present value (NPV) and internal rate of return (IRR) for the Casio fx-5800P.  A key feature is that these programs use the statistical lists List X and List Freq from the SD mode.

There are three programs listed:

"NPV":  calculates Net Present Value.  Store the interest rate in decimal in variable X in Comp mode before running "NPV".

"SOLVE":  solves for the Internal rate of return (IRR) using the secant method.  Again, use decimals for interest rates.  For the IRR, your YTARGET is always 0.

"YFX":  The function to solve.  In this case, YFX refers the program to "NPV".

The programs here are from Pierre Gillet and are presented with permission.

Notes:
1.  Small n  is from the Statistics variable n.  [ FUNCTION ], 7:  STAT, 2: VAR, 1: n
2.  Call up the Stat lists by:  [ FUNCTION ], 7: STAT, 1: LIST  (1: List, 2:  Freq, or type X for List X)

0 → Y : 1 → U : 2 → W 
Lbl 1
U + List Freq[W] → V
Lbl 2
Y (1 + X) + List X[W] → Y
Isz U
U < V ⇒ Goto 2
Isz W
U < n ⇒ Goto 1
List X[1] + Y ÷ ( ( 1 + X ) ^ ( n - 1 ) ) → Y

Note:  Keep recycling the loop with [ EXE ] until an error occurs.  The final result is the IRR (stored in X).

Note: The frequency of the first data point (X[1]) is not considered in the calculation.

"X1" ? → A
"X2" ? → B
"YTARGET" ? → T
A → X : Prog "YFX"
Y - T → R
B → X : Prog "YFX"
Y - T → S
Lbl 1
B - S ( B - A ) ÷ ( S - R ) → C
C → X ⊿
Prog "YFX" : Y - T → Q
A → B : R → S : C → A : Q → R
Goto 1

Prog "NPV"

Example

Go to SD mode.  Make sure that the Frequency is turned on by pressing [ SHIFT ],  ( SETUP), 5: STAT, 1: FreqOn

Data:  List X, Freq
-5600, 1
1300, 1
2500, 1
3000, 1

NPV:  interest rate of 8%.  (store 0.08 in X)

Result:  $128.55

Solve for IRR,  run SOLVE with guesses X1 = 0, X2 = .15, and YTARGET = 0.

Final result:  0.0912 (9.12%)

Thank you Pierre Gillet!

Note: I wasn't called to jury duty - back to normal life for me.  I'm also posting this a day early.
