    Data Table (What If Analysis) Calculating Incorrectly

    I've been banging my head against the wall over this issue. For some reason when the data table calculates it calculates incorrect values (if you notice correct values are in the bottom right cell of the data table. I've audited the table to make sure I'm don't have static values by accident and have not found any. Additionally, I've checked within calculation options to make sure that it is set to calculate tables automatically and it is. At this point I have no clue why the table is behaving as it is. Any insight would be helpful.

    Sorry, where can I see the correct results that you expect?

    I suspect you may have a problem with circular referencing.

    Sorry for not making this clear. Enterprise value in K31 should match the mid point on the data table (L38).

    The only circularity should be between the Cash Flow, Balance Sheet, and Income Statement as well as the Implied Share Price but that shouldn't be hitting that data table.

    Re: Data Table (What If Analysis) Calculating Incorrectly

    Yes, you have a problem with circular referencing.

    The data-table function works by substituting one-by-one your row- and column values into the destinations that you decide. But when you, e.g., say that L35 should be equal to K25, into which you are inserting the value of L35, then you have a circular reference. In the attached, I made a quick fix; have a look:

    I see what you are saying about the circular reference now. Many thanks you are my hero!
