Huybert, Can you explain a little more the reason for not modeling revenue by year? Are you suggesting that one should model the revenue or operating...

That's a good (and very common) question! The quick answer is "yes".. For a more comprehensive answer I would refer you two resources: 1. A web-seminar...
Hi John, Thanks for the clarifying question! What I was trying to point out is that you should NOT model the yearly revenue (and costs) as follows: ....
Huybert, Thanks for your time and for your clarifications!. I think it is also wise to relate all of them with NPV and IRR! What is your opinion? Second...

Dear Huybert, It is pleasure to address you. This is The file attached. I want to check percentile and certainty on this model. If you have time then...
Hi Debra/Todd, Great questions! This is a very common area where people make mistakes. While it is not 100% clear from your email how exactly you did it, I...
Huybert, you have hit on my problem, and even tried to address the second part of forecast model. I will explain here, and then again, below among your...
Hi Debra/Todd, From reading your email, I think you need a way to incorporate the variation in the probabilities from year to year is to have one cell in your ...

Hello all, I'm trying to model conditional proabailities in CB. Quick desscribtion of my problem. I have three distributions as inputs (X, Y, Z) and I run my...
Hi, Jimmy, If X and Y are continuous, then the probability of their assuming particular fixed values is of course 0. If X and Y are discrete, then you can run...
The distribution are continious gamma functions. I do not get what you mean by "If X and Y are continuous, then the probability of their assuming particular...
This illustrates the problem of specifying a model in terms of correlations. A correlation is a relationship among the distributions of the variables. When...
Hi, Jimmy, Try this: Run your model, including the correlations using 20,000 or more iterations. Extract trial values for F, X, Y, Z. Sort the data on X....
This the approach I was considering. I was just concerned that I would end up with a poor fit unless I run a large set of data. I will give it a try and see...
Has anyone received a "No data available" message when running a sensitivity analysis? I have a model with around 4000 assumptions and 250 forecast variables....
Hi Charles, The likely reason for this is that some of the forecasts that you had originally specified that you wanted the Sensitivity Analysis to be performed...
No, that is not the issue. I might create a brand new forecast variable. If I run it for a small number of trials (e.g. <5000) I can run the sensitivity...
