Model driver with accelerators
I am building a financial model and need help with how to accelerate revenue drivers without doing it manually. What I am trying to do is build a revenue schedule where a piece of equipment is added on a start date and then based on the accelerator an additional piece is added every Nth month. What is a good excel formula to accomplish this?
Let me get this straight: you want to add a piece of equipment in month one and then add another piece of equipment in every Nth month, where N is a hard-coded driver, correct? So, for example, if N=3, you add one piece of equipment in January, another piece of equipment in April, another in July, etc., correct?
Yes. That is what I am trying to achieve.
Ok, give me a few minutes. I can think of some "sloppy" way to do this, but there is probably a neat way. Have you tried anything yet?
I tried by listing the equipment individually and set dates for each piece then use an if/then. But I don't think this looks as clean.
You could use a hidden MONTH() row, then use a IF statement to calculate the difference between months. If difference between months = n, add equipment, if not, "".
