Best Practices
This article summarizes good practices and recommendations for your financial model.
Currency
Currency on the Slidebean financial model is controlled via the Settings Page, to allow you to use a centralized symbol, rather than having to assign formatting to each cell.
Most of the sheets, including Revenue, SG&A, Staff, COGS, and CAPEX, have a 'Currency' column that is linked to this cell. You should format numbers as 'Automatic' or 'Numbers' using your spreadsheet editor's formatting tools, rather than adding a currency symbol to each cell.
