Why automated NPV and IRR calculations are better than Excel

  1. Algorithms eliminate the human factor and account for all cash flows.

  2. This increases the reliability of the metrics and reduces the risk of investment errors.

  3. Instead of week-long calculations, NPV and IRR figures are generated in hours.

  4. This speeds up the preparation cycle for investment committee materials.
