HM Treasury-UK-guidance note: the use of internal rates of return in pfi projects-2010
The Internal Rate of Return (IRR) is most commonly used in PFI contracts as a measure of the rate of return expected to be earned by private sector capital in the project and is thus the basis for, inter alia, the calculation of the Unitary Charge at Financial Close. It is therefore fundamental to the negotiations and Authorities should take care to understand the methodology for calculation.

This paper discusses how PFI contracts should be accounted for under IFRS.
