LBO returns (MOIC & IRR) API

Leveraged-buyout returns: MOIC = exitEquity/entryEquity and IRR solving NPV(cashflows)=0 over the holding period, with entry/exit equity supplied directly or derived from EV and debt and optional interim distributions. Root-finding LLMs get wrong; deterministic. Answers 'LBO IRR and MOIC','sponsor return on this buyout','money multiple from entry and exit equity'.
