How the solver works

Our algorithm uses Newton-Raphson iteration to find the purchase price that yields your target IRR. It models monthly cash flows, accounts for debt service on the seller note, and calculates terminal value at exit.

Assumptions built-in

Tax rate: 25% federal + state. CapEx: 3% of revenue. Depreciation: straight-line over 7 years. Working capital changes calculated monthly. Seller note amortizes on a constant payment schedule.
