Read the result within its limits

Capacity and demand are separate assumptions. The lower one limits sales. A restaurant may derive capacity from seats and turns; a service business from productive hours and job duration; accommodation from rentable nights.

This tool models one revenue stream, one average price and one monthly period. It does not calculate profit, seasonality, customer acquisition, returns or working capital. It must not be used as a universal model for subscriptions, lending or every business in the catalog.

See the whole financial chain.

Use the restaurant worked example to connect opening capital, revenue, costs and cash. All its financial values are synthetic.
