    Sensitivity Analysis

    Hi Im doing work on a Subdivsion and have made a sensitivity analysis to gain a range of end values based whether expenses and values are increasing/decreasing.
    I have finished a table and it seems to work correctly, but am wondering for future use there must be a better way to set this up???
    I have read Excel Help but havnt been able to get anywhere.
    If anyone is able to help, that would be great!

    Here is what I have done for now.

    Subdivision.xls

    Thanks

    Re: Sensitivity Analysis

    As a general suggestion, name your cells!!

    I played arround with your formula :-

    (I colorcoded your 2 constants below, not sure if they will always be the same) if so it could possibly be simplified further!

    =ROUND((((GrossRealisation-(LegalPS+(SComissPC*GrossRealisation)+(MarketingPC*GrossRealisation)+(GrossRealisation-(GrossRealisation/1.125))))-(((GrossRealisation-(LegalPS+(SComissPC*GrossRealisation)+(MarketingPC*GrossRealisation)+(GrossRealisation-(GrossRealisation/1.125))))*(ProfitRiskPC/(1+ProfitRiskPC))))-(DirectCosts+HoldingCosts))*1.125),-3)
    It makes it more readable to change!

    By naming the variables across the side and top eg k10:q10 as GrossRealisation you can use it in your formula! And still copy between the cells, but its easier to maintain!

    also a little math and simplification :-

    =ROUND( (((100%-($C$11+$C$12+(1-(1/1.125))))*K$10-$D$10)/(1+$C$15)-(K$11+$J12))*1.125,-3)
    With Names:-
    =ROUND( (((100%-(SComissPC+MarketingPC+(1-(1/1.125))))*GrossRealisation-LegalPS)/(1+ProfitRiskPC)-(HoldingCosts+DirectCosts))*1.125,-3)
