Argus Multifamily Unit Rollover and Absorption Formulas

I am trying to figure out how the multifamily template in Argus works. Specifically, I am confused about how Argus is calculating unit absorption and unit rollover (when I select evenly and say 12 months for average term). Does anyone know what the actual formulas are for this?

Candidly, it's been a while since I've worked a MF Argus model, but you'll have a unit breakdown (Studio/1BR/2BR/etc.) and you set each unit type to roll annually at regular intervals, which then bump out to the MLA assumptions. As you can imagine, there aren't TI/LC costs built into the MLA (assumption being there isn't ground floor retail) so the capital is modeled directly through Expenses/Capital. Feel free to PM if you need further clarification.
