How is finiace index calcuated? (Fearless Blue)

I ask becasue I am making a profit and net cash goes yet finiace index goes down

i saw the formula some where, not sure i can hunt it up, but the basic thing to look at, is not total profit, but profit over cost. some one that makes 400B income a gm, with 250B cost, will have a lower FI than some that makes 200B with 100B cost. even though they are making more.

really, i wouldn't worry about your FI. focus on making money, and your FI will fall into place.

Ok that is ususaly what I do
Thanks

There are two different formulae used to calculate FI. Once your costs are > 100B then the second applies, which can result in much higher FIs than sub 100B costs.

The following is a copy of an email I received from the GMs a while ago, when I asked exactly the same question:

You asked about one of the most complex indexes indeed.

The most important factors are total income and cost.

The main factor is computed as:

1.3 total income this year + total income last year Divided by (you probably guessed)
1.3 total cost this year + total income last year.

There are some smoothing factors too, preventing sudden changes that occur all the time. The change of year causes a change in the index, because of the changing definition of this year and last year.

so the index is n times the current value plus the new value, divided by n+1.

n I remember as 6 or 7.

There are also some smaller corrections and measures that prevent a division by a very small number and a small factor that makes it more difficult to get into the hundreds, add
