Makadirio, ufafanuzi na makosa ya kawaida

Makadirio ya hesabu

  • Rates and recurring amounts stay constant for the period represented by the formula.
  • Inputs use the same monthly or annual time basis stated in each field label.
  • Taxes, fees and contractual rules are excluded unless the calculator explicitly asks for them.

Jinsi ya kufafanua matokeo

  • Use the headline as a planning estimate and compare it with the detailed totals.
  • Run a baseline plus favorable and conservative scenarios before deciding.
  • Confirm important results against a lender, payroll statement, tax authority or signed contract as applicable.

Makosa ya kawaida ya kuepuka

  • Mixing annual rates with monthly amounts or entering a percentage as a decimal.
  • Leaving out fees, taxes, changing rates or timing differences that apply to the real decision.
  • Treating approval guidelines, market returns or future appreciation as guarantees.
