In financial modelling, consistent, uniform design increases efficiency and reduces error.
This modelling guide sets out some recommendations for a “default” model design. This will often have to be adapted, but it’s a good place to start.
Calculation blocks are a key feature of FAST models; they help to make models more readable.
Sometimes however, we have to repeat the same kind of calculation many times. Having lots of the same kind of calculation block is not always the best approach.
Financial models are often complex and difficult to read. Long formulas which reference remote areas of the model contribute to this.
Calculation blocks help make models easier to read and navigate.
An annuity debt repayment profile involves “level debt service” – with interest reduces and principal increasing over the term of the debt. This modelling guide explains how calculate an annuity payment profile.
Agenda:
Modeling depleting items
Consistency in the format
Modeling the Taxes
Modeling of Debt and Cash Balances

It is tempting to dive straight into the spreadsheet when faced with a strict deadline.
However, taking the time to plan and create the model structure visually can be effective in ensuring the logic of the model is clear to the model developer and to anyone that uses the model later.
This guide concentrates on producing a conceptual model using tools that are readily available in Microsoft Office.

Modelling can be tough – by following this guide you can shift your stress and make your colleagues lives hell!
The consequences for falling for some, or all of the following temptations are described in more than eighty spreadsheet problems at www.eusprig.org/stories.htm
Consistent formatting is important in models. It helps communicate what particular cells are for, and helps to communicate useful information about the structure of the model.
In order to facilitate easy, consistent formatting, we have a set of FAST format macros.
There are two basic types of line item in financial models – flows and balances.
Balances are amounts at a point in time. Balances can be financial or non financial.
Every balance has similar properties. This guide explains what those properties are, and gives a standard model component that can be used for all balances.
To simulate is to try to duplicate the features, appearance and characteristics of a real system.
The idea behind simulation is to imitate a real-world situation mathematically, to study its properties and operating characteristics, to draw conclusions and make action decisions based on the results of the simulation.
The real-life system is not touched until the advantages and disadvantages of what may be a major policy decision are first measured on the system's model.
The reality of financial modelling is that the model build is not linear. We do not always get all the data at once and we do not always have all the necessary information. It’s important to have a coherent plan for these situations.
This modelling guide shows you how to present “placeholders” in a clear and efficient way. It also explains a technique of creating “placeholders” that will help you indicate clearly that something in your model is temporary code.
Inventories are short term assets held as part of an organisation’s core business operations.
Inventory management is an important part of working capital management. Where inventory levels are significant, a good model should show the impact on cash of holding such significant levels.
We will look at how to model three types of inventory: raw materials, work in progress and finished goods.
When building models in excel sometimes files become large, slowing down your modelling progress and making simple calculations painstakingly slow.
Size is often a function of the number of calculations and complexity of formulae. There are also causes of excess file size that are not related to model complexity. This modelling guide explains how to reduce file size in excel, by dealing with two such causes – end cells and unused styles.
Accounting depreciation - Initial balances and ongoing capital expenditure (This guide replaces the guide - Advanced depreciation using SUMIF)
Ongoing capital expenditure programmes give rise to modelling challenges when it comes to accounting depreciation. Care must be taken since assets start and stop depreciating at different times.
In this guide, we will also consider how to model accounting depreciation relating to a partially depreciated initial balance.
Everybody knows that in financial modelling, inputs, calculations and outputs should be separate.
When you’re in the “build phase” of a model, there can be short term benefits of locating inputs next to the calculations they are driving.
The guide explains those benefits, and shows you how to quickly and easily move the inputs to dedicated input sheets at the end of the build.
Events in the real world have an annoying habit of not occurring on your financial model period end dates. This modelling guide gives you reusable code to calculate partial period factors. This will allow you to easily deal with events that occur in between period end dates.
Working with more than one timeline in a model is common. Modellers need to be able to take series data calculated in a high resolution timeline (e.g. quarterly) and aggregate it in a low resolution timeline (e.g. annual).
In this modelling guide, we will explain how to aggregate quarterly series data in an annual model using SUMIF and SUMPRODUCT.
This modelling guide focuses on advance payments and retentions in construction contracts – this financial modelling approach can also be applied to other contracts where similar mechanisms are applied.
Corporation tax is a levy on profits earned by companies. A corporation is often required to make periodic payments of tax in respect of its estimated tax liability.
Modelling the frequency of tax instalments in a financial model is important if an organisation’s cash flows are to be modelled appropriately. It is also possible to model the frequency of payments such that they adapt with changes to the model timeline.
This modelling guide explains how to model instalment payments in a flexible, structured and transparent way.
Losses sustained by a company might be available to match against future profits. Lower future profits mean less tax paid.
A “tax loss carry forward” refers to the practice of matching the losses of previous periods with a current period’s profits.
This modelling guide explains how to calculate and account for tax loss carry forwards that have a limited shelf life i.e. they are forecast to expire.
Sometimes we need to multiply a vertical range of numbers, by a horizontal range of numbers. This requirement occurs frequently in project finance in calculating reserve account balances. This modelling guide shows you how to use the MMULT function effectively for this requirement.
Banks quote interest rates on a simple annual basis. These are known as quoted (or nominal) rates.
They often need to be manipulated in order to undertake modelling calculations.
Since different money markets quote using different conventions, it is important that the modeller understands how the quoted rate should be manipulated.
In this guide we will consider how to model a net present value (“NPV”). We will also consider the Excel functions available that are specific to calculating an NPV.
A project’s internal rate of return (IRR) includes all relevant cash flows regardless of when they occur.
Construction period cash flows may be modelled on one timeline (e.g. monthly) and operations period cash flows might be on a different timeline (e.g. quarterly).
So to calculate an appropriate internal rate of return, we use an approach based on two timelines – each with a corresponding set of cash flows.
Slide Makeover #92: Comparing growth in Sales and Expense categories over timeDave Paradi
Often we want to compare how different data series have changed over time. If the starting values are significantly different, graphing the trends in each series may not make the comparison better than a table of numbers. This makeover shows how you can use an index line graph to compare trends in different data series using a common starting point.
Communicating information from a screen or piece of paper easily and accurately often requires as much planning in the layout as it does in the collation / creation of results.
Even simple ad-hoc pieces of work and analysis will benefit from consistent and clear formatting.
What’s the secret?
While there’s no single “right” format, there are general principles and Excel shortcuts that can assist you.
This white paper sets out some key principles you can apply to your next Excel model, report or dashboard.

As is the case with any organization, healthcare organizations establish strategic goals in support of their vision and mission. In turn, initiatives are pursued in hopes of achieving goals.
Introduction
In a perfect world, every initiative that the organization values would be pursued. But healthcare organizations have limited resources. Hence decisions must be made about which initiatives to pursue. Such decisions are typically based on several factors, including:
· the perceived value of the initiative
· how strongly the initiatives support organizational missions and goals
· potential for return on investment
· resources required.
Nurse leaders and others who drive the pursuit of these initiatives need to be sensitive to these factors. Value, support of objectives, and return on investment are usually communicated by developing a business case for the initiative. The need for resources is typically communicated by developing a formal budget request.
A budget request is a formal document that most organizations require from those seeking resources (funding) for various projects and initiatives. When successful, a budget request results in the initiative being included as part of the organization’s budget; a planning tool that allocates resources (such as money or personnel) to the activities and capital needed to support the pursuit of strategies for a given time period (typically a year).
Throughout this course you will work on the development of a budget request for a healthcare product or service you propose to the leadership of your organization. As you do so, you will consider your audience for that request, financial and other resources you will need to launch the initiative, and other factors. You will utilize spreadsheets to help you analyze the financial impact, and you will develop a business case to advocate for your proposal to the leadership of your organiz ...
Excel, by default, recalculates all open workbooks whenever there is a change in an input or a formula in any of the open workbooks.
Excel has a number of options that allow you to control when open workbooks are recalculated.
There are two types of calculation mode in Excel: automatic and manual
This modelling guide will explore the different Excel calculation modes and how to use them.
In previous guides we have considered the use of VLOOKUP and INDEX / MATCH as a means of matching constants with a corresponding date on a horizontal timeline.
In this modelling guide, we will look at SUMIF.

Financial Models sind oft komplex und schwierig zu lesen. Lange Formeln, die auf weit entfernte Stellen im Modell hinweisen, tragen dazu bei.
Berechnungsblöcke helfen dabei, Modelle einfacher zu lesen und zu navigieren.
This modelling guide looks at how to model key aspects of a loan – including a choice of debt repayment profiles (level debt service vs level principal).
The accompanying spreadsheet includes a presentation sheet that shows the main features of the loan.
Charts and graphs are used to make information clearer and easier to understand. They play a critical role in helping people to visualise large amounts of information, make better decisions and communicate their results to others.
This modelling guide explains how to make quick charts and how they can be useful in analysing data.
In this guide we analyse the trend of operating revenues, operating costs and operating profits / (losses) over the timeline of a project.
Goal seek is one of the most powerful tools in Excel. It can be useful in a wide range of situations.
This guide will show you how to get the best from goal seek and present some tips to make our lives easier while working with it.
This guide assumes that you know a bit about how goal seek works.
An Index Linked Bond is one in which bond cash flows are calculated with reference to future inflation rates. As at 2008, government issued index linked bonds exceeded $1.5 trillion.
This modelling guide explains how to model index linked bonds.
There are numerous different ways of repaying the principal on a term loan: annuity style; level principal; bullet; balloon and sculpted repayment profiles.
A financial model should be able to switch easily from one scenario to another. A good Excel function to use is INDEX.
IF, CHOOSE and OFFSET are also frequently used by modellers – but they lack the structure, transparency and flexibility of INDEX.
Les modèles financiers sont parfois complexes et difficiles à lire. Un élément important créant cette complexité : l’utilisation de longues formules référant à d’autres cellules du modèles.
Les blocs de calculs aident à faciliter la lecture et la navigation dans un modèle.
We’ve taken three operations that we perform most often when constructing calculations and automated them using macros.
These additions will make a significant contribution to your construction skill efficiency, by removing the need to repeat lengthy keystroke combinations.

BONKMILLON Unleashes Its Bonkers Potential on Solana.pdfcoingabbar
Introducing BONKMILLON - The Most Bonkers Meme Coin Yet
Let's be real for a second – the world of meme coins can feel like a bit of a circus at times. Every other day, there's a new token promising to take you "to the moon" or offering some groundbreaking utility that'll change the game forever. But how many of them actually deliver on that hype?
Financial Assets: Debit vs Equity Securities.pptxWrito-Finance
financial assets represent claim for future benefit or cash. Financial assets are formed by establishing contracts between participants. These financial assets are used for collection of huge amounts of money for business purposes.
Two major Types: Debt Securities and Equity Securities.
Debt Securities are Also known as fixed-income securities or instruments. The type of assets is formed by establishing contracts between investor and issuer of the asset.
• The first type of Debit securities is BONDS. Bonds are issued by corporations and government (both local and national government).
• The second important type of Debit security is NOTES. Apart from similarities associated with notes and bonds, notes have shorter term maturity.
• The 3rd important type of Debit security is TRESURY BILLS. These securities have short-term ranging from three months, six months, and one year. Issuer of such securities are governments.
• Above discussed debit securities are mostly issued by governments and corporations. CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSITS CDs are issued by Banks and Financial Institutions. Risk factor associated with CDs gets reduced when issued by reputable institutions or Banks.
Following are the risk attached with debt securities: Credit risk, interest rate risk and currency risk
There are no fixed maturity dates in such securities, and asset’s value is determined by company’s performance. There are two major types of equity securities: common stock and preferred stock.
Common Stock: These are simple equity securities and bear no complexities which the preferred stock bears. Holders of such securities or instrument have the voting rights when it comes to select the company’s board of director or the business decisions to be made.
Preferred Stock: Preferred stocks are sometime referred to as hybrid securities, because it contains elements of both debit security and equity security. Preferred stock confers ownership rights to security holder that is why it is equity instrument
<a href="https://www.writofinance.com/equity-securities-features-types-risk/" >Equity securities </a> as a whole is used for capital funding for companies. Companies have multiple expenses to cover. Potential growth of company is required in competitive market. So, these securities are used for capital generation, and then uses it for company’s growth.
Concluding remarks
Both are employed in business. Businesses are often established through debit securities, then what is the need for equity securities. Companies have to cover multiple expenses and expansion of business. They can also use equity instruments for repayment of debits. So, there are multiple uses for securities. As an investor, you need tools for analysis. Investment decisions are made by carefully analyzing the market. For better analysis of the stock market, investors often employ financial analysis of companies.

5 Tips for Creating Standard Financial ReportsEasyReports
Well-crafted financial reports serve as vital tools for decision-making and transparency within an organization. By following the undermentioned tips, you can create standardized financial reports that effectively communicate your company's financial health and performance to stakeholders.
3. Financial modelling should be collaborative. Collaboration
reduces error, speeds up development time and lowers
cost. The Financial Modelling Handbook is a collaborative,
crowd-sourced guide to building better financial models
using the FAST Standard.
4. Emily Cowan is Director of the
FAST Standard Organisation.
Previously she led the Financial
Modelling Team at Grant Thornton
and has also worked at Macquarie
Bank.
5. In financial modelling, consistent, uniform design
increases efficiency and reduces error.
This modelling guide sets out some
recommendations for a “default” model design.
This will often have to be adapted, but it’s a good
place to start.
6. It’s important to have consistent column structure across your model.
Changing column structure once a model is built can be painful and error
prone.
The column structure you will need for your model will depend on the
requirements of that model. The structure in this guide is a good default
starting position.
7. Columns A, B and C are reserved for headings. Clear headings help
users of the model to understand what is going on.
Column A: Section headings
Column B: Sub-section headings
Column C: Sub-sub-section headings
8. Reserving specific
columns for each type
of headings gives a
number of benefits.
Formatting can be applied
to the whole column and
therefore all the labels at
once. Select the whole
column using Control+
spacebar
Also headings can be used
to navigate up and down
the page using Control +
up and down arrows
9. The FAST standard recommends a
“positive as normal” sign convention.
This means that inflows and outflows
are shown as positive numbers in input
and calculation worksheets.
The text in Column D has been right
aligned to allow a helpful indicator to show
when line items are being added and
subtracted
10. Each calculation in the model
should have a unique and
descriptive label.
When that calculation is linked into
another block, the label will also be
linked to in Column E.
11. In most models, there will be inputs and
calculations that do not relate to a
specific time period. Column F is
reserved for those numbers.
For example in this model, the gas
consumption factor does not change
over time. It is therefore displayed in
the constants column, Column F.
12. In many financial models there will be a
mix of financial and operational
calculations. It’s important to include a a
clear unit label for each line item.
Clear unit labelling also helps to
reduce errors that can creep in when
converting units.
13. Row totals contained in Column H are for
information only. They are not used in
calculations. It is often useful to see the
order or magnitude of a line items.
New row totals are only added to
calculations, usually the last item in a
calculation blocks
When line items are linked, the row
total is linked as well and does not
need to be recalculated.
14. There is frequently a requirement for
calculations to look back one period.
This is especially true in the calculation
of balances where the opening
balance in a given period is equal to
the closing balance in a previous
period.
Leaving a blank column before the time
series columns begin allows a very simple
approach to calculations that look back
one period.
15. Columns from J onwards each
represent one modelling period. Model
periodicity will change from model and
can range from hourly to annual.
The formulas across the timeline from
column J onwards should all be the same.
This makes review and checking easier
since each column does not have to be
checked individually.
16. Each column should have a single purpose.
Column structure should be consistent across similar types of
sheets in your model. i.e. all your monthly calculations sheets
should have the same column structure.
Column structure need not be the same between models since
there will be model specific requirements. What is contained in
this guide is a good starting position.
