Vals AI(@ValsAI):LBO and DCF models are the hardest categories because each is one long chain of linked calculations where single early error cascades through everything downstream. Failures can also be quite spectacular. On one DCF modeling task, most of the model was built correctly, but a single runaway revenue line cascaded through the model and produced an implied share price of negative $67 trillion. In tightly linked financial models, even one bad cell can ruin the entire model.
