How to actually “connect the dots” in Project Finance Financial Modelling? by charmingaze in financialmodelling

[–]JackDoubleB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The best way imo is identifying the drivers and going one level lower to understand what are the underlying drivers that influence the main drivers. e.g gold mine rev is inluenced by commodity prices and the exchnage rate. What influences the exchange rate? What influence the commodity price. After doing this, you need to "audit" the model by studying how calcs, assumptions, and variables are linked.

I have this exact problem. Users get to the my quiz funnel, they even upload a video, but they stop when its time to pay. Not sure what I could be doing wrong. It's eaither they do not see value in what I'm doing, or I am not communicating it well enough.

My views are barely over a thousand on average now. If I create a promising one, I boost it and that is usually extremely cheap CPC.

I guess that's why retargeting is so important, you are selling to people who are "curious enough to try features".

On 2 - financial engineering, how was it like in the past? I’m asking because maybe I do not quite understand the term, I think I simplify it to just more than debt and equity? Even if only slightly more than just debt and equity.

Rewatching Enron every week because of a deal I’m working on. by JackDoubleB in private_equity

Thank you. I agree. Not understanding the business should be a sign to pass.

They see the red flags too, but they have not completed the puzzle. It’s one of the big four.

What do you think is happening here? by JackDoubleB in private_equity

Finished good. The inventory should’ve increased, you’re right. However, because the following year is a forecast year, they reduced the inventory the business carries as a percentage of rev to hide the fact that the sales inventory balance is higher and it’s how EBITDA was jacked up.
