Julian Stewart invested $280,000 in a limited partnership to drill for natural gas. The investment yielded annual returns of $45,000 the 1st year, followed by $10,000 increases until the 6th year, at which time an additional $180,000 had to be invested for deeper drilling. Following the 2nd drilling, the annual returns decreased by $10,000 per year, from $85,000 to $5,000. Using Excel, the IRR = 15.28%.
