Remember that Excel’s NPV function doesn't really calculate the net present value. Instead, it simply calculates the present value of uneven cash flows. Therefore, you need to subtract (i.e., add a negative cash flow) after calculating Excel’s NPV.
The $800.00 initial outlay is entered as a negative value (i.e., cash outflow) in cell B4.

Use Excel’s =IRR(B4:B9) function. Notice that the IRR function does take the initial outlay into account automatically.
The IRR function is actually defined as =IRR(values, [guess]). The “guess” argument, a number close to the IRR, is optional and is generally not needed.

The IRR calculation implicitly assumes that you will reinvest the cash flows at the same rate as the IRR. This assumption is unrealistic and leads to rates of return that are too high. It is more reasonable to calculate the Modified Internal Rate of Return (MIRR), which allows you to specify an alternative reinvestment rate.
The MIRR function is defined almost identically to the IRR function, except that it has a reinvestment rate argument and does not need a “guess”:
=MIRR(values,finance_rate,reinvest_rate)
In this function, finance_rate is the required rate of return (i.e., the discount rate) whereas reinvest_rate is the reinvestment rate. Excel will use the finance_rate to calculate the present value of all cash outflows and the reinvest_rate to calculate the future value of all cash inflows. The MIRR is the interest rate that makes the present value of the outflows grow to the future value of the inflows over the life of the investment.
It is common to assume that the reinvestment rate is the same as the cost of capital. Therefore, we usually set both the finance_rate and reinvest_rate to the same interest rate.
