Petit test
Guess first, no penalty. Budget was $4.0M, actual revenue was $4.4M. The AI writes: "Revenue beat budget by 40%." Is it right?
A chat tool writes numbers the way it writes words, by predicting what usually comes next. Unless it runs a real calculation, a percentage can be wrong and still read perfectly. Period labels slip too: September turns into "Q3" (July to September) because reports say Q3 a lot.
So recompute every percentage, total and period label from the source. A variance is the gap between the budget (the plan) and the actual (what happened).
| September | Budget | Actual |
|---|---|---|
| Revenue | $4.0M | $4.4M |
| Marketing | $300k | $360k |
| Travel | $80k | $60k |
