Inputs vs. Outputs Component

Hi guys! Wonder if anyone else has come across this.

I'm currently developing a module to drop into a modular workbook and something came to mind - my assumptions component, which will provide links to other assumptions components contains way too many calculations. To my question...

How do you all compartmentalise where a calculation should take place ie. should it be contained within an outputs sheet, or self contained within the assumptions sheet? I draw the example of the Debt Module?

Cheers,

Hi Jeffrey,

Thanks for the response! Very helpful - I really like the idea of "framing it as a summary of assumptions in the model".

I totally get what you say RE mash it all together (a common request actually), making it hard for a single best approach. I would contend though that this potentially presents an excellent opportunity as a model developer, to coach best practice (I'm keenly aware there would be push back though). What are your thoughts?

Cheers,
