Sorry for the typos and omissions. Let's try that paragraph again:

****tfolio Internal Rate of Return -  This is the result of the calculation
to solve for the rate of return which would make an account grow from its 
initial
value to its ending value over a particular period of time. It measures 
****tfolio
growth over time and is directly comparable to other familiar returns such
as that of a bank account.
