Comparing financial amounts on a defined basis
This worksheet calculates the displayed relationship from the supplied quantities. Its label and period conventions determine how the amount should be interpreted. A financial model is useful when its cash amounts, rate convention and time horizon describe the same case. Interest, return and purchasing power are different outputs. A projection should remain separate from an observed or audited balance.
Scope of this operation

Inputs
| Field | Example | Definition |
|---|---|---|
| Marketplace A | Provide marketplace a as the source record shown by the example. The tool uses the supplied text and does not retrieve missing facts from an external account. | |
| Marketplace B | Provide marketplace b as the source record shown by the example. The tool uses the supplied text and does not retrieve missing facts from an external account. | |
| Sales volume | 1000 | Measure sales volume in the displayed unit. Convert the source measurement before entry if it uses another system; a changed label does not perform a unit conversion. |

| B fee (%) | 15 | Enter b fee (%) on the percentage scale used in the formula (20 means 20%, not 0.20). Keep its base and reporting period consistent with the other inputs. |
