The intuition here is that we deposited $100 into the account at t = 0, then added $118 to the account at t = 1 (which, with
the $2 dividend, funded the purchase of one more share at $120), and ended with a total value of $264.
Financial calculator (IRR) CF0 = +100; CF1 = +118 (+120 – 2); CF2 = = –264 (–260 + –4)
