How the calculation works
M = −4.84 + 0.920 DSRI + 0.528 GMI + 0.404 AQI + 0.892 SGI + 0.115 DEPI − 0.172 SGAI + 4.679 TATA − 0.327 LVGI.
What to verify
The M-score is a screening model, not proof of manipulation. Verify index construction and conduct full financial analysis.
How accurate is this calculator?
It is a transparent planning calculation based on the entered values and stated assumptions. Verify inputs and obtain professional or supplier confirmation where the decision is consequential.
Does it use U.S. defaults?
Yes. U.S. units, terminology, pricing conventions and rules are the primary defaults where location matters.
Is data sent to a server?
No. The calculation runs locally in the browser and does not send entered values to a remote calculation service.
