The Descartes Rule of Sign: ALLOWS for determining the ONE TRUE Internal Rate of Return (IRR) when sign changes in Cash Flows are properly
considered PROJECTS the number of NPVs a project has when sign changes in Cash Flows are considered. Determines the MINIMUM number of IRRs a project can have when there are MORE THAN ONE sign change in a stream
of capital budgeting project Cash Flows Determines the MAXIMUM number of IRRs a project can have when there are MORE THAN ONE sign change in a stream
