Unconventional Cash Flow

Corporate Finance Financial Terms Dictionary

Unconventional cash flow is a change in the direction of a company’s cash flow over time from incoming to outgoing cash flow or vice versa.

Irregular cash flow makes capital budgeting difficult because it requires more than one internal rate of return (IRR).
Most projects have regular cash flow; one cash outflow, which is an investment, and then several cash inflows, which are income.
