Hello,

I'm working on a cash flow analysis, and I am looking for some help (hopefully not requiring a macro solution if possible).

In looking at a net cash flow analysis, I have a variable setup that says in X years, we will be looking to fully replace equipment with a value of Y. How can I get my cash flow to subtract that value depending on how many year we expect to we will need to replace the equipment?

For example-
(X) Replacement Cost: 100,000
(Y) Years: 3
Annual Estimated Net Cash Flow: 250,000

Year 0: -100,000 (initial equipment purchase)
Year 1: 250,000
Year 2: 250,000
Year 3: 150,000 (first replacement)
Year 4: 250,000
Year 5: 250,000
Year 6: 150,000 (second replacement)

Anyway, I'm hoping to make this dynamic so management can easily change the variables (except for cash flow which is inputted from another formula).

Thank you!
Brian
