Analysis Controls
Analysis Controls
First, decide which year will be your final year of analysis. You can decrease the end year to target specific problems. Next, you can change the number of Monte Carlo resampling runs to perform – that is, how many times the analysis will be run.
Financial Controls
Financial Controls
Change the Financial Controls to set the summary interval (that is, the time step in years to be used for display of results) and the discount rate, which is the rate of return used in discounted cash flow analysis to determine present value of future cash flows. This is used to calculate Net Present Value (NPV), which gives an indication in the change in value compared to current values.
Hazard Controls
Hazard Controls
Hazards Controls enable you to use choose a climate change scenario for each hazard, e.g. CSIRO low for bushfire
