This tool models one operating decision from explicitly supplied company assumptions. The implemented relation is Session contribution = collected session revenue − attributable session cost, evaluated from Collected training-session revenue, Trainer loaded compensation per session, Facility and equipment allocation, Sales, booking and payment cost, Follow-up and cancellation allowance to produce Personal-training session contribution. Credentials, preparation, records, cancellations, taxes and safe service scope must remain visible. The model omits unentered taxes, cash timing, legal constraints and market uncertainty. Compare the output with company records and a downside scenario before committing resources.
