Planning, not a tax returnAll amounts use the same unit. Year zero is the acquisition value. Only full years are modeled; no tax jurisdiction, partial-year convention or inflation is applied. Fixed-rate declining balance does not force the residual value in the final year or automatically switch to straight-line.
