I want to tell you how thankful I am for all your support in this year.

Heartfelt thanks to you, from my family, staff and volunteers.

About this year’s holiday card

We took this picture recently when we went to Udaipur (a city in northern India). For a change, no one closed their eyes when the camera clicked. Click on the picture to enlarge.

A holiday gift for you…

It gives me immense pleasure to give a gift to you this holiday season. Unfortunately, my sleigh is no where to be found and the reindeer have wandered away. So I can’t drop this gift thru your chimney. Would you be a darling and download it by clicking below button? 🙂

Holiday schedule of Chandoo.org

This year, I am going to lie low and let my kids take over the blog during holiday season.

I am just kidding. 😉

Even though my kids will not be posting anything, I will try to make some time to update the blog during next 2 weeks. Here is what you can expect.

  • 29 December (Monday) – People & websites that helped me in 2014, thank you message
  • 31 December (Wednesday) – Best of Chandoo.org in 2014
  • 1 January (Thursday) – Free 2015 Excel calendar & daily planner template
  • 5 January (Monday) – Regular broadcasting of Excel awesomeness

Our forum:

Our Excel forum will be up and running during the holiday season. That said, I would not expect quick help for any problems as most of our regular members would be away on holiday break. You have higher chance of getting true for rand()=rand() than finding someone to answer your Excel question during next few days. So be patient and enjoy the holidays.

Online store:

Our online store will be open. Any purchase you make for training programs, templates or eBooks will be delivered as promised. If you join our course on Christmas eve or day or on new year day, please expect to receive your password by the end of next working day. If you have any support query, please expect to hear a resolution by 7th of January.

Emails:

If you are sending me an email, please expect a reply only after 7th of Jan. If you have something urgent to say, you can call me (find my number on the site).

Once again…,

On behalf of my family, our staff, volunteers and well wishers, let me wish you a very pleasant holiday season and an awesome start to 2015.

    As always, superb article Chandoo... 🙂

    Just one minor issue:
    While following your steps and replicating this calculator in PowerBI, I found that the Growth Pct Parameters should be set as "Decimal number" not "Whole Number"
    OR
    we have to make corresponding adjustments in the Forecast formulas (i.e. divide by 100) to get accurate results.

    • Chandoo says:

      You are right. I used whole number but modified the auto created harvester measure with /100 at end. Sorry I did not mention it in the tutorial.

  4. FrankT says:

    Instead of
    [Growth Pct 1 Value]/12
    the monthly rate has to be
    (1+[Growth Pct 1 Value])^(1/12)-1

    It's a slight difference but in 30 years the future value will be $100k less.
