Overview:

A centralized assumptions page with editable, color-coded inputs, covering:

• Product pricing (feeds, day-old chicks, dressed chicken)
• Operational volumes and placement schedules
• Biological and technical assumptions (FCR, mortality, hatchability, yield)
• Inflation, FX rates, VAT, and general economic parameters

Business Unit Working Sheets

Dedicated sheets for each major operational area, enabling calculation of production volumes, costs, and KPIs:

• Feed Production

Scenario & Sensitivity Analysis Modules

Sensitivity tables to analyze impacts of key variables (e.g. feed price, FCR, hatch rates)

USD Conversion Logic

• Supports dual-currency reporting (UGX & USD)
• Applies monthly average FX rates to P&L items and closing rates to balance sheet positions
• Enables side-by-side or toggled USD financial views
