How do I use the sensitivity analysis for my business plan?

Topic Overview

• Using the parameter matrix
• Using the scenario simulation

Using the parameter matrix

The parameter matrix allows you to test the combined impact of two parameters on your profit or margin.

1. Open Sensitivity analysis.
2. Select the Parameter matrix tool.
3. Select two input parameters (e.g., Cost group 400 and 500).
4. The combined impact is displayed in increments from -20% to +20%, with the break-even point indicated by color-coding.

Using the scenario simulation

The scenario simulation enables you to make interactive adjustments and view their real-time effects on profitability.

1. Open Sensitivity analysis.
2. Switch to the Scenario simulation tool.
3. Add parameters such as specific Cost groups or revenue sources.
4. Adjust the interactive sliders to observe real-time profitability changes in the KPI panel on the right.
