Question - Gilbert Monzon wants to "kick it up a notch" and open a new restaurant. In order to do so, he needs to convince Banco Popular that his up-scale restaurant will be profitable. Gilbert wants to use D-cide to model the profit and loss for the next six months. He will use this information in the business plan he plans to present to the CFO of the bank.
