HOW THE WORKBOOK TIES (read me first)
 Tieout_Workbook is formula-linked. The only hard-keyed numbers are genuine SOURCE
 data: the raw JV_Listing, Opening_Balances, the Payroll_Reconciliation roster
 salaries, the A/R aging buckets, inventory quantities and unit costs, and three
 debt inputs (opening principal, annual rate, level monthly principal). Every total,
 extension, balance and roll-forward is a formula you can click into and trace:
 JV_Listing + Opening_Balances -> Trial_Balance (SUMIF per account)
 Trial_Balance (Ending column) -> Income_Statement & Balance_Sheet (cell links)
 A/R row totals = SUM of buckets; Inventory value = Qty x Unit Cost; Debt rolls
 forward (interest = balance x rate, ending = beginning - principal) month to month
 AR / Inventory / Debt / Bank / Payroll -> Tie_Out_Checks (PASS/FAIL formulas)

INSTRUCTOR MATERIALS  [00_Start_Here]
 issues_key_INSTRUCTOR_ONLY.csv
 Instructor_Guide_2024_CONFIDENTIAL.pdf

Closing mode: pre. Net income is calibrated to a positive target margin;
revenue is linked to payroll (salaries are a set fraction of revenue), so the two are no longer independent.
NOTE: prior_year_financials.pdf and the Analytical_Review tab use ESTIMATED prior-year comparatives (the earliest year has no in-run predecessor).
