FUNDAMENTAL FORMULAS REQUIRED

  • Forecasted Sales (Sheet 2, Column C): =IF(B2="", "", B1 * (1 + D2) * E2 * F2) (Uses prior month's sales, growth rate, adjustment factor, and seasonal index.)
  • Monthly Payment (Sheet 3): =PMT(B5/12, B6, -B4) (Standard PMT function with monthly interest rate and term.)
  • Growth Rate Calculation: =((SUM(C13:C24)/COUNT(C13:C24)) - AVERAGE(B1:B12)) / AVERAGE(B1:B12)
  • Loan Affordability Check (Sheet 3): =IF(B8 <= (0.35 * SUM(C:C)), "Affordable", "Risk High") (Checks if loan payment ≤ 35% of average forecasted monthly revenue.)
  • Dynamic Dashboard Summary (Sheet 1): Uses SUMIFS, VLOOKUP, and INDIRECT functions to pull data across sheets dynamically.

CONDITIONAL FORMATTING RULES (OFFICE USE OPTIMIZED)

  • Sales Forecast Trend Cells (Sheet 2, Column C): Green fill if growth > 5%, yellow if between -1% and +5%, red if below -1%.
  • Loan Payment Cell (Sheet 3): Red text and bold if payment exceeds $10,000/month (configurable).
