Captions feature does not work currently. Also, there is no way to increase/decrease playback speed. These features are common for online classes and would greatly improve quality of life.

Turning the default Excel cell backgrounds to gray
Is it best practice in the finance/consulting industry to do this? Or is this step for learning purposes only?

Completed work sheet
It would be useful to have a completed worksheet of the model. It is not always easy to follow the instructions. Is it possible you can send a completed model for the advanced model. Thanks. Fanar

Formula for F68-N72 on Value tab
Shouldn't the offset formula for Cell F68 on the Value Tab instead be: =$C68*F$9-OFFSET(IS!$F$61,F$4,Value!$A68)? This way, it will capture various CASES in the offset function. Please advise.

shortcuts
for some reason when i try and use the shortcuts (control alt D/m/c/x) it changes my numbers into whole numbers only. for example 1508.4 becomes $1,508 and omits the .4... why is this?

Looking for clarity. We input $352,541 for the 2006 total revenue column, however it is listed under the 01/2007 row of the forecast document. Is it because $352,541 represents the total revenue for the entire 2006? The 01/2007 row would then represent the end of 2006.
