Follow a supported result back to its inputs. Inspect the equation in Model or the live-formula Excel workbook.

Annual cash after interest$112,500

Net operating income − Annual interest

$210,000 − $97,500 = $112,500

Annual interest

Illustrative Base case: $210,000 net operating income − $97,500 annual interest = $112,500 annual cash after interest. Inspect the fixed equation and its values; no assumptions are edited here.

Net operating income (NOI) is income after operating expenses. A simplified example with interest-only debt. It leaves out fees, taxes, principal payments, and changes over time.

02 / Keep authorship visible

Keep Authorship Visible.

Model marks manual values as yours and keeps its standard method available. Reviewers can distinguish your changes from native calculations.

Manual value · Launch Feature

Your manual value

A value you enter is marked as yours. Model's original calculation stays available.

Manual values remain visibly attributed to their author.

Review Checks and Targets.

Review sources and uses, required assumptions, and relevant model checks. Set supported metric targets and keep key measures in Live Returns.

This sample's sources match its uses. A balance check does not approve the assumptions or the deal.

Required assumptions still need to be present and reviewed in a real model.

Fixed illustrative balance check: $1,500,000 senior debt plus $1,000,000 equity equals $2,500,000 of uses. This check covers the sample's funding balance only.
04 / Share the context

Make review easier.

A clear version, source date, and checks summary give a reviewer useful context. An integrity stamp records that context; it isn't an audit opinion or a lender's approval.

06 / Leave room for judgment

Calculation Scope.

Repeatable formulas make results easier to verify. They don't make uncertain assumptions certain or remove every possibility of error.

FAQ

Questions about the calculations.

How is this different from asking AI to make a spreadsheet?

Model is designed around a consistent calculation engine and inspectable formulas. AI can help operate the tool, while Model computes the numbers.

Is it lender-friendly?

That's the intention: clear assumptions, repeatable calculations, shareable review, and live-formula exports. Each lender sets its own requirements.
