LBO model taking too long to converge
I built an lbo model that's balanced and working okay, but it's taking a long time to run through iterations to balance everything. I turned off automatic calculations for data tables and it still takes ~4,000 iterations to get through all the circular references. Any advice to get this to run faster without macros?
Sounds like you didn't build it correctly. A good model minimizes the amount of circularity
I'm not sure how to avoid circularity when adding certain pieces into the model (PIK added in a few more) and there are a lot of debt instruments in the model. Any tips?
In terms of speeding up the model, those suggestions helped, but the ending values are still quite a bit off and need more iterations to get the balance sheet to balance.
Usually it's because of how the model is constructed and not due to an inherent conceptual circular/iterative reference.
