Excel Financial Modeling | Sensitivity & Scenario Analysis

[@shrutigupta250]

I used to refer to this channel for learning basics of finance and ended up doing a degree in it. Now, I'm here to revise for am exam. Thanks a lot!

[@sammy88l99]

Thank you so much Kenji for making these videos. Thank you for making education free 🙏

[@KenjiExplains]

Glad you like them!

[@i123456987654]

Wow, you did a very good job with explaining the steps to goal seek and constraints...I love how you put on the screen the keystrokes...super helpful, thanks!

[@KenjiExplains]

Glad it was helpful!

[@SOCI4BLE]

Absolutely clear, no BS, straight to the point and you make the content very easy to understand. Much love Kenji.

[@brocklee3768]

Better than all of my professors combined.

[@pulnisav.4956]

Thank you for your knowledge sharing. I really love your channel. It's very useful tips and inspire me to do better.

[@nywzhizhang]

Yeay finally you make this video. Thanks for considering your subscriber's request. Tons of thank you, Kenji. Keep it up!

[@KenjiExplains]

Thanks for the idea!

[@luistrejo2987]

Recently landed a BA role at Samsung, needed to check some excel and this has been so handy, thank you a lot!!!

[@Fant0me972]

I really like this modelling series more DCF's please

[@farzanamia2449]

Hi Kenji. This has been extremely helpful. Thanks so much 😊👌

[@anthonyvazquez8742]

Excellent video. Love the examples directly in excel. It really helps give us the viewers a look at the practical applications of the theoritical concepts we are taught in school. This help bridge the gap. Thank you

[@KenjiExplains]

Great to hear! thanks for the awesome comment :)

[@jp_skywalker]

Thank you so much. Now I have a better understanding on how to create sensitivity analysis. Do have a video or article about how to calculate company valuation or discounted cash flow?

[@jamessibanda2849]

very simplified explanation and easy to understand. i just have one question though, when doing sensitivity analysis, you used price as a variable in the column section instead of units but when i look in the table its indicating the opposite. why did you do like that. Also when i selected units as variables for column section and price as variable for row section, the results are different, do you know the reason for this?

[@Sj-vs6mn]

You're videos are amazing! Very straight forward and easy to digest. I am learning so much, thank you!

[@mhknowledgeacademy6420]

Mr. Kenji. I love your videos. You explain very nicely and make it very easy to understand. Please make video on WACC calculation and modeling in excel.

[@jayxpea]

This was great. Simple, to the point and very practical for every day business use.

[@KenjiExplains]

Great to hear thanks!

[@SimoneDoyle-e8t]

Your tutorials are great! Thanks Curious, how would you connect the 3 dynamic financial statements to different scenarios analysis with an existing small business and 3 years of historical data? Would you be able to do a tutorial on 3 connected dynamic financial statements for an existing small business (less than $1M revenue) with multiple debt assumptions?

[@aliikhlaq]

Best video of the Excel tutorial

[@gvinodnair]

Simply brilliant and adds value to a subscriber. Keep it up Kenji!

[@KenjiExplains]

Much appreciated!

[@derp.2898]

Instant subscriber, great job. I'll be bingeing your videos buddy thank you very much.

[@KenjiExplains]

awesome to hear!

[@tushargarg9118]

Your videos helps Please make a video on how to take assumptions to forcast financial statements like BS cashflow P&L

[@dommanedounia4917]

Thank you so much for the AMAZING CONTENT ! Very Insightful Video :) !

[@MyRockMyFortress]

The sensitivity analysis is great!

[@KenjiExplains]

Great to hear!

[@nicogerst6007]

Just FYI for the 2nd example (data table) the values in the video of the table are different than if you were to input product price manually; even though it says integers of 6-10 in the column, the actual value is the goal seek approximation of 8.2134.... ±1. Thus, the values in the table differ if you input price manually or copy/paste the values

[@rohanagnelo7074]

Love this guys tutorials !!!

[@kingwei1838]

Awesome video, thank you!

[@bangladeshexcelmeetup]

I loved the way you presented.

[@alexrosen8762]

Your tutorials are just amazing. Very comprehensive with that extra touch. Thanks so much 🙏

[@pinareruelkeroglu4832]

First of all, I have watched many Finance videos and paid a fortune on Udemy. But you are outstanding! Well done and please keep going. Now, a serious question, I am actually doing exactly what you are doing. However, I get completely different values when I run the sensitivity calculation in the matrix. How is this possible? (*confused smile).

[@shreyansh1246]

you are simply the best ❤

[@giorgilobjanidze8297]

Very useful. Many thanks for your videos. Greate job

[@malikkngn]

Thank you a lot for this amazing step by step content!

[@Ari-lu5ve]

Great video. I loved how you included the keyboard shortcuts. It would be cool if we could look at more interesting/real world application data instead of sticking with the lemonade stand example. Also, I thought you moved a little fast but I was able to pause the video to catch up so its all good. Thanks again.

[@KenjiExplains]

Noted!

[@gfzubia16]

Grande Kenji, un crack

[@YusufZiyaYİĞİT-e9c]

First thank you for your well-designed education program. When I use SOLVER, solving your SOLVER example, I encountered different solution pair sets like (22,626 #units; 8,79 usd/units), (18,865; 9,99), (24,026; 8,43), (24,394; 8,35) and so forth other than your base pair set (25,000; 8,21). I guess they are endless. My question is, is that correct? And if so whether we can make an automated table like "DATA TABLE"?

[@prathmeshsharma4258]

Thankyou so much Kenji💪

[@hunterdawson935]

Just wondering with the drop down list. If i had multiple sheets and wanted the same drop down list so i didnt have to keep flicking back and forth but wanted it so that if i change the drop down list on one sheet it reflects across all sheets. I was doing a case study which had a drop down list in a different sheet but if you change that one it wouldnt change any data at all so wondering how to make it work the all the same

[@angelmaravilla4708]

Amazing Video!, Just one doubt: Why do you choose the "GRG Nonlinear" algorithm instead of tge "Evolutionary" Algorith??, what's the statistical reason???? (I used the second approach, and it provided other series of values for "price" and "quantity")

[@duggie88]

Very nice video. Learned some good excel shortcuts and ways to do analysis

[@arslan_TM]

Hello Sir In order to be a financial analyst, do you need to have a deep understanding of GL accounting processes and procedures, I mean practical exposure?

[@francisxl368]

How do you the control page down for the scenario & sensitivity analysis at 6:30 in the video?

[@MuslimIslam01]

You are an amazing and thanks for sharing useful knowledge

[@tinanguyen8425]

thank you so much, you are the best excel for business and finance tutor, your practical examples made me addicted to excel

[@m.ssharma535]

Sensitivity & Scenario Analysis super useful

[@qikong7269]

Thank you for sharing your video Kenji! I really like your tutorials - they helped me a lot during my interviews in PE shops.

[@KenjiExplains]

That’s awesome to hear thank you for your comment 🚀

[@luckylucky7916]

About price and quantity sensitive, do you have any advice for Co., with multi products? G&A cost not easy to separate for each product, will we use average value of G&A?

[@arindambhattacharya7848]

I agree we can do goal seek and solver to get the value of the equation we want..but does it work when I need to share the file to an audience and the audience be given the choice of choosing/changing variables

[@ahnafjawadkhan2269]

Hey kinji thanks for the videos. It helps a lot. Can you make a video on FCFE and FCFF models

[@michaelquach7046]

Another banger video, keep up the good work!

[@KenjiExplains]

Thanks! Will do!

[@hanniehyunnie1043]

wow you make everything easier

[@imirosmanov2745]

Dear Kenji, could you please explain how to carry out sensitivity analysis for operational risk stress testing?

[@melvinsimbar7060]

You are actually amazing

[@nelsonlim8437]

If I were to have more than one type of units and price points. Eg. 20. Do I have the create this type of assumption 20 times or are there better options? Thanks

[@weiyingchen2518]

I worked out another answer with solver: price = 9.99, unit sold = 18865. The price is up to the constraint in this way while the unit sold is to the maximum in the video. How can I tell the solver to give me both answers?

[@josephdelgado3619]

your videos are invaluable to those entering or looking to enter jobs in finance, thanks

[@paulcompetente4329]

You're a legend bro! ✊ Amazing content! Keep it up! 🍻

Hi Kenji, thanks a lot for this lesson. How about forecast with pandemic issue ?

[@erickportuguez3906]

wonderful and brilliant! the best

[@normang663]

Thanks Kenji, something about your videos that make excel really exciting to learn.

[@moonshinemagic1771]

Excellent - how does this video differ to the sensitivity/scenario analysis in your course? Do you have an practical (real life) examples for IB/compote finance in terms of sensitivity/scenario analysis in your course?

[@KenjiExplains]

Yes it’s based on real companies like apple and adobe in the course so we analyze their real financial statements. Check out the landing page for more details! www.careerprinciples.com/courses/finance-valuation-course

[@tanyasachdeva3008]

Thanks a lot. Very helpful

[@Mad1080]

I'm confused how are things calculated in sensitivity analysis ?? Can anyone explain or share clear video??

[@Falkland82]

Can i kindly have guidance to down load the spread sheet used in the example.

[@angelclarke1942]

Thanks very much for this explanation, the instructions were clear and I was able to build a scenario analysis

[@xWarPlays]

I have a question, I get a numbers report every week and it’s a pain to keep copying and pasting the numbers in a new table. Is there a way to have specific parts of the numbers Im sent to be automatically transferred to the new table?

[@camlex6310]

Really helpful!! Thanks Kenji

[@KenjiExplains]

Glad it was helpful!

[@samanthaaaz22]

Very helpful!

[@rockj8197]

On the solver, the first time I did it, it maxed out the Units sold at 25k and adjusted the Cost per unit just like yours. On all subsequent tries, it maxed out the Cost per unit sold and left the Units sold at 18,865. Is there a reason it chooses one constraint over the other to max out? Can I control this? FYI: using excel for mac.

[@mostxtremenoob6384]

Kenji, could you do a video of monte carlo simulations for financial modeling?

[@ariesinlalaland9959]

Very useful, thanks for sharing!

[@KenjiExplains]

Glad it was helpful!

[@ukemeisaac]

Great content! Great teaching. Thank you.

[@nikospaparis5500]

Great instructions

[@Nerijus..]

@kenji explains tried to follow up your guidance for sensitive analysis, but getting an error, different numbers getting. can you help me to fix it?

[@shubhankarshekhar3447]

Remove formulas in the input section (like 25000 - 5000 or L3 - 5000) and then run the sensitivity analysis

[@adilsiddique980]

Well explained 👍

[@imrandaud478]

I'm confused about the figures put in the 3rd scenario sheet.

[@Ockin4982]

Hello Kenji! Thank you for the quick tips and lessons, you really helped me in my career. If I may request a topic, can you bring up sensitivity analysis in the perspective of risk management? As in trying to find out from a financial model which change in an independent variable contributes the most to the change of the output. So that we can find out which independent variable to keep an eye on and divide our risk management resources accordingly.

[@jaimemoran5428]

insane, keep this way!

thank you i learned a lot

[@jasminq2995]

Hi, how did you select the cells above for SUM function? Did you use keyboard shortcut? Thanks

[@ankitaagrawal8273]

Thanks for the great content. You explain all the concepts in simple and effective way..

[@hankdikoma7087]

Hi what could be the reason why my sensitivity table does not change when the variable changes

[@グルラジャムルティ]

Thanks for the excellent videos. Are these videos from the course or different?

[@KenjiExplains]

Hi there, the videos on the course are different! The course has more realistic scenarios with real data from companies like their actual financial statements

[@グルラジャムルティ]

@@KenjiExplains Ok Great. Thanks for responding.

[@LalitPatilcasper]

Great video. One quick question - In sensitivity analysis how did the model recognize 10K SGA expenses? We only gave input for SPPU & CPU?

[@wicem4]

same question here if you have found the answer after so long..

[@tillysimmons3859]

Can you please make a video on spreading comps? thank you

[@parisaemkani5730]

when i try to use solver for practicing my price per unite does not change. I checked everything. what is wrong with that?

[@kemalserkanozturk9060]

you are the best

[@mamonaislam6646]

Can we use vlookup instead of choose formula

[@neilr8738]

Thanks for putting out in depth content like this.

[@i123456987654]

Ah, goal seek, takes me back to my business analytics class

[@KenjiExplains]

haha the good stuff

[@imrandaud478]

God Bless you

[@maxmood19]

Hi Kenji or Everyone else that can help. Thanks for this insightful video. I am trying to build a model with 3 interactive scenario (base, best and worst) that I want to show and interact on each tab of the worksheet. By interactive, I mean every scenario change on one tab affects other tabs of the model also. Is that even possible? if yes, please help.

[@Anon19146]

Great content! Keep it up

[@mahimachoudhary4562]

What to do if sensitivity analysis isn't working ?
