Data Table
 

Hi,

I am trying to create at data table with two inputs and one outcome.

The inputs are calculated: (1) An IRR and (2) a Debt Coverage Ratio. The
output is rent, which is not a formula. I want to be able to input any IRR
value and/or DCR, but the Data Table will not output my rental change that
would correspond to the changes in the IRR/DCR. Is Excel capable of doing
this, and if so, can someone send me a simple demonstration/calculation to
help me? I have been working on this for a bit and am frustrated. I am afraid
that I am not able to have a clear head since i have been working on this for
a couple of hours trying different scenarios.

Thank you so much,

Data Table
 

hmz -

For an example of a two-input data table, see my chapter "Sensitivity
Analysis Using Excel" file:

http://www.treeplan.com/chapters/02_...71029_1042.pdf

specifically, section 2.4.

Data Table
 

Thank you. This information is helpful. I realize that data tables are only
for input sensitivities. What I need is to use an output to find my input. In
my case, I am trying to find out what (input) rent should be to produce an
IRR (outcome), but I need to use the IRR to find the rent. If I want a 25%
IRR, what rent should I have to get there. Since, IRR is an output
(calculated cell), the table will not work for me. Is there another area in
Excel that I can look? Goal Seek will work, but I was hoping to have
something more in a table format for my client.

Again, thank you for the helpful information. €“

Goal Seek will work, but I was hoping to have something more in a table

So, perform multiple "manual" goal seeks, and display the results in a
"table."
