Discount Rate Question



Hi

If I have the NPV of a cash stream calculated with a discount rate of
8%, and the NPV of the same cash stream calculated using 6%, can I
calculate the NPV at 3.5%?

I don't think this is possible (no unique solution) - but I'd be very
interested in members' views. Is there, for example, an 'approximate'
or 'most likely' solution???

Thanks,

Rob
