Decision guide

Methodology

How DecisionWorth calculators are designed, reviewed, and maintained.

Calculator rules

  • Use transparent formulas.
  • Show assumptions clearly.
  • Keep calculations educational, not advisory.
  • Test formulas before release.
  • Do not store personal financial inputs by default.

Review process

Each calculator includes a last-reviewed date. Formulas should be checked after major product updates and at least quarterly for active production use.

The package includes a browser-based formula test page at /tests/formula-tests.html.
