2 Layers of Debt (Circular Reference Modeling Question)

Have a fairly intricate model with plenty of moving parts already. Set a senior and subordinate loan to calculate as LTCs of a total capitalization which inherently accounts for their interest reserves.

The model calculates well enough when I set iterations to i.e. 200 - but is there are way to make it operate faster without changing the iteration count?

would like to hear some opinions

 

don't run iterative calculations, but instead include a buffer in the rate. Iterative calcs are cumbersome and provide a sense of false accuracy.

 

In other words, run the model/waterfall one step forward i.e. calculate the interest off of the prior periods balance. Regarding the buffer, run a market rate + 50bps
