Abstract
One of the most attractive indexes to select the best investment decision is internal rate of return (IRR) measure, but it has some significant faults both in practice and theoretically. Multiple attempts have been made to resolve the IRR challenges, but none of them are perfect. This article presents the Modified Simple Average Internal Rate of Return criterion as a profitability index for calculating a unique rate of return for all various types of cash flow streams so that obtained results are consistent with the net present value method in accept/reject decisions. The presented method is simple to compute and is capable of resolving all known IRR defects including when the resulting rate is greater than −1.
