Cash Flow Diagrams and Signs of Numbers

The sign conventions used for cash flow calculations are the same as
those used in time-value-of-money calculations. A typical series of cash
flows is one of two types:

„ Ungrouped cash flows. These occur in series of cash flows without

“groups” of equal, consecutive flows.

*

Any cash flow series can be treated as an ungrouped one if you enter each

flow individually.
