Audited planning profile
This small business quarterly profile applies a 12× editable baseline across 4 model periods to the emergency borrowing compare model.
Use the difference between option A and option B; keep the scale and horizon identical for both. Use current business volumes and preserve working-capital and operating margins. Check seasonality and any costs that occur only once per quarter.
Variable rates, late fees, prepayment rules, credit-score effects, taxes and lender eligibility are not inferred.
Use the lender's current APR, fee schedule and payoff quote; preserve an emergency-cash margin.
