Rates of Return and Underwriting

[Kris Bennett]

Cap rate, cash-on-cash, NPV, equity multiple, IRR...

Can anyone recommend a good source of information on using these rates of return when underwriting deals? I've found a few but I wanted to know if there is a good website or book or program that covers all these in a way that's easy to understand and applied to a real deal?

Has anyone had experience with coaching programs that cover these financial terms? Do you feel they did a good job explaining them or did their explanations stir up more questions than they answered?

Any help or guidance is appreciated!
