finding the results of changing 4 variables
Hi, I'm working on a 10 year financial forecasting model for an investment
fund. The end result is to calculate the IRR. There are 4 variable inputs I would like to change, and observe how the IRR changes as those inputs change. In other words, I would like to play with changing two different fees, the fund size, and the expected return, and see how changing those impacts the IRR. Is there a way to do this on one sheet without manually changing all these inputs? I think Scenario or Data Tables might do it, but I'm not sure. Thank you. |

irrhelp -
For single-factor sensitivity analysis, where usually you keep three inputs at base case and vary the fourth, you could use a one-way data table. For two-factor sensitivity analysis, where usually you keep two inputs at base case and vary the other two, you could use a two-way data table. The data table approach is described in my free chapter, Sensitivity Analysis Using Excel, available from the Chapters page at www.treeplan.com. An alternative is to use an add-in to automate similar analyses. My SensIt add-in may be useful. Another add-in is Palisade's TopRank. - Mike http://www.MikeMiddleton.com "irrhelp" wrote in message ... Hi, I'm working on a 10 year financial forecasting model for an investment fund.

Have you tried the free Sensitivity Analysis Add-In Macro provided at http://www.life-cycle-costing.de/sensitivity_analysis/ ?
It allows for up to 20 input and up to 20 output values to be varied / observed at a time. Either being varied separately (one input at a time) or in all possible combinations of all inputs. Regards Thomas Quote:
