I see that the solution uses the horizontal slicing method on this problem. Is there a reason I can't vertically slice on this problem? If I can, are you able to tell where I went wrong? Columns E-J in the excel are taking the max of (0, Col D minus the underlined ratio). Thanks!

  • I looked at this for a long time, and I of course figured it out immediately after posting. The issue is that in columns E-J, I'm using loss ratios instead of turning those into entry ratios. After dividing them all by 0.5, I got the same answers as the model solution.
