SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Financial models often contain errors that undermine trust, including circular references, broken formulas, and misaligned balance sheets. This Skill provides a disciplined workflow to ingest a model, run structural and integrity checks, identify root causes, and deliver an auditable report.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structural checks verify inputs vs calculations, ensure consistent formulas, and detect hard-coded values.
  • Integrity checks verify that the balance sheet balances, cash flow is coherent across periods, and P&L links are correct; it also generates traceable issue logs.
  • Output & reporting produces an issue log, detailed traces, and an annotated model suitable for client reviews.

Quick Start

Provide an Excel model file and request a full model audit to identify structural and integrity issues.

FAQPage Schema
How do I check my Excel financial model for errors and balance sheet issues?▼

Auditing a financial model involves running structural checks to detect hard-coded values and broken formulas, verifying balance sheet alignment, and generating a formal issue log with annotated outputs for review.

What is the best way to find circular references in a 3-statement or DCF model?▼

Finding circular references requires integrity checks that trace formula dependencies across P&L, cash flow, and balance sheet links, identifying root causes and generating traceable issue logs for the model.

Can I audit an LBO or merger model for hard-coded values and structural integrity?▼

You can audit LBO and merger models by applying structural checks to verify inputs versus calculations, detect hard-coded values, and enforce consistent formulas across the Excel workbook.

Does this financial model audit work with scenario analyses in Excel?▼

This audit works with Excel-based scenario analyses by enforcing structural and integrity checks to ensure cash flow coherence, correct P&L links, and accurate balance sheet balances across all scenarios.

Why does my balance sheet not balance when I update my cash flow projections?▼

Balance sheet misalignments occur due to broken P&L links or circular references, requiring integrity checks to trace formula dependencies, correct structural misalignments, and generate an issue log.

How do I generate an issue log for a financial model audit?▼

Generating an issue log requires running structural and integrity checks to identify errors, trace root causes, and produce an annotated Excel output detailing all discovered formula and balance sheet issues.
