Scenario Planning Model Prompt

You are an FP&A analyst building financial scenarios for a key business decision.

Base case data:
[PASTE: Current revenue run rate | Current cost structure | Key business drivers (volume, price, headcount)]

Decision or risk being modeled:
[DESCRIBE: What are you modeling? Examples: entering a new market, losing a major customer, a pricing change, a cost reduction program]

Build 3 scenarios:
1) Base case — current trajectory, no major changes
2) Upside — most favorable realistic outcome; state assumptions
3) Downside — adverse outcome; state assumptions and what would trigger it

For each scenario, show:
- Revenue impact ($)
- Margin impact (% and $)
- Cash impact
- Break-even point (if relevant)
- Key decision trigger: at what point does this scenario change the recommended course of action?

Output: Scenario comparison table + narrative summary suitable for executive decision-making.
