Eight microlearning boxes
Keep periods and units consistent
Turnover, liquidity, margins, payback and customer economics are meaningful only when numerator and denominator refer to compatible periods and units.
Margin and markup use different denominators
Margin divides profit by selling price or revenue, while markup divides profit by cost.
Liquidity ratios are snapshots
Current ratio and working capital describe a balance-sheet moment; cash timing and asset quality still matter.
Meeting cost is a loaded-resource estimate
Salary alone understates the economic cost if benefits, payroll burden, overhead or contractor rates are excluded.
Discounts and taxes should be sequenced explicitly
Net price depends on whether tax is applied before or after discounts and which fees are taxable.
Simple payback ignores time value
Discounted payback can be longer because future cash flows are discounted; neither metric alone captures full project value.
LTV:CAC is sensitive to retention assumptions
Small changes in churn or expected customer lifetime can materially change estimated lifetime value.
Invoices are records, not payment guarantees
An invoice should clearly state seller, client, items, totals, dates, terms and notes, but collection still depends on agreement and payment behavior.
