Compare saleable output with input mass on the same stated basis.
Validation required
Fictional default example · 2025.
What the selected record shows. Saleable output on matching basis: 970 kg; Input mass on matching moisture basis: 1,200 kg. This gives 80.833 %.
Next step. Check matching outputs, denominators and operating conditions. Prepare performance comparison in the prototype creates a visible, downloadable draft. It is unassigned and not sent.
The conversion ratio does not establish the cause of loss or adjust moisture automatically.
100 × saleable output / matching input mass. Keep by-products, transfers, moisture change and losses separately identified.
Other required records: Input kilograms; saleable output; moisture; by-products; process stage; period.
Calculation appendix
Compare shipment cost per matching tonne-kilometre.
What the selected record shows. Shipment cost per tonne-kilometre: 187.5 LKR/(t km).
Next step. Review cost components and comparable verified outputs. Prepare cost comparison in the prototype creates a visible, downloadable draft. It is unassigned and not sent.
A low ratio does not establish equivalent service quality, handling or delivery conditions.
Shipment cost / (actual load tonnes × verified route kilometres). Match empty-return treatment and cost allocation.
An absent or zero denominator has no unit-cost result. Keep fixed, variable and opportunity costs identifiable.
Other required records: Shipment cost; load tonnes; verified distance kilometres; route; period.
Check temperature observations against the stated product and time conditions.
What the selected record shows. The supplied Fictional chilled fresh-cut vegetable lot / arrival temperature result is 8 °C. Its stated comparison range is 0 to 5 °C. Outside example comparison bounds.
Next step. Obtain the missing evidence listed below. Prepare evidence request in the prototype creates a visible, downloadable draft. It is unassigned and not sent.
A sample comparison does not establish whole-shipment safety or conformity.
Compare the measured value only with matching parameter, unit, use and averaging period. Retain limit source/version and censored-result status.
Example bounds establish no compliance or diagnosis. Ambient, drinking-water, effluent, crop, food, air and noise standards are not interchangeable. A censored result is not an exact zero. A temperature comparison does not establish microbiological safety, cumulative cold-chain compliance or fitness for consumption. Celsius values below −273.15 are physically impossible. Negative shipment temperatures are otherwise retained for comparison.
Other required records: Shipment; temperature series; exposure duration; product limits; sensor calibration.
Compare export value per matching shipped kilogram.
What the selected record shows. Recorded export value: 8,832,000 LKR; Export quantity on matching product basis: 4,500 kg. This gives 1,962.667 LKR/kg.
Unit value may reflect product mix and is not a price or profitability index.
Recorded export value / Export quantity on matching product basis, for the same product, process and period.
A unit value mixes prices and product composition. It is not automatically a like-for-like market price. Match grade, product code, currency and period.
Other required records: Product; destination; export value; quantity; currency; period.
Compare supplier lots with dated processing demand and specifications.
What the selected record shows. Supply minus demand: -300 kg. Review quantity/capacity gap.
Next step. Review quantity/capacity gap. Prepare matching review in the prototype creates a visible, downloadable draft. It is unassigned and not sent.
A quantity match does not establish quality, traceability or a purchase agreement.
Compare the same specification and unit, uncommitted quantity and overlapping delivery windows. Keep mandatory quality and use conditions explicit.
A candidate match does not reserve stock, appoint a person, authorize waste reuse or form a contract.
Other required records: Material specification; supplier stock; commitments; arrival window; facility demand.
Compare processing demand with usable machine hours.
What the selected record shows. Usable capacity minus demand: -15 machine hours. Review capacity shortfall.
Next step. Review capacity shortfall. Prepare capacity review in the prototype creates a visible, downloadable draft. It is unassigned and not sent.
Capacity alone does not establish product compatibility or a production booking.
Usable capacity = rated capacity − documented unavailable capacity. Surplus/shortfall = usable − matching demand.
Match peak/average basis, time window, skill, staffing, accessibility and other binding constraints. One aggregate capacity does not override a safety constraint.
Other required records: Orders; product mix; machine capacity; downtime; shifts; material availability.
Check batch dates against resources, delivery windows and prerequisites.
What the selected record shows. Planned duration: 3 days. Resolve overlapping resource bookings.
Next step. Resolve overlapping resource bookings. Prepare schedule review in the prototype creates a visible, downloadable draft. It is unassigned and not sent.
A schedule does not establish conformity or guarantee delivery.
Check start/end order, operating window, effort, predecessor completion and overlapping bookings for the same resource. A conflict is flagged; no optimal schedule is invented.
Other required records: Orders; due dates; equipment; changeover; staff; materials; sanitation windows.
Check product observations against the stated technical specification.
What the selected record shows. The supplied Fictional finished-pack seal width result is 10.4 mm. Its stated comparison range is 9.8 to 10.2 mm. Outside example comparison bounds.
A single result does not establish the condition of every lot.
Example bounds establish no compliance or diagnosis. Ambient, drinking-water, effluent, crop, food, air and noise standards are not interchangeable. A censored result is not an exact zero. These fictional packaging dimensions are a stated buyer specification, not a general product standard. A measured seal width must be greater than zero. A missing or absent seal must be recorded for investigation rather than treated as a valid zero width.
Other required records: Lot; specification; test result; method; process condition; corrective history.
Trace the supplied source defect through recorded downstream lot links.
What the selected record shows. Broken or affected lineage: 1 items. Investigate linked downstream lot.
Next step. Investigate linked downstream lot. Prepare source comparison in the prototype creates a visible, downloadable draft. It is unassigned and not sent.
Candidate links do not establish physical recall scope or authorise a recall.
Follow recorded upstream→downstream links within the same scope and period. Flag missing links; a confirmed defect identifies downstream linked candidates for authorized investigation.
Recorded lineage is not proof of product identity or recall authority. Preserve multi-source batches, transfers and versions; do not clear unlinked lots as safe.
Other required records: Supplier lot; production batch; ingredients; shipments; customers; trace links.
Reconcile processing input mass with output, transfers and stock.
What the selected record shows. Unaccounted physical share: 6.667 %.
Next step. Reconcile the input, output, stock and transfer records. Prepare loss-balance review in the prototype creates a visible, downloadable draft. It is unassigned and not sent.
An unaccounted balance does not identify the bottleneck or the best intervention.
Unaccounted = input − saleable output − usable by-products − closing stock − transfers out. Share =100 × unaccounted / input.
Use a consistent moisture basis and process boundary. Unaccounted mass is not automatically avoidable food loss or spoilage.
Other required records: Input; output; rejects; by-products; moisture; stage; loss cause.
Compare process energy per matching saleable output.
What the selected record shows. Energy consumed: 3,128 kWh; Saleable product output: 4,500 kg. This gives 0.695 kWh/kg.
A high ratio requires process and operating checks before selecting an improvement.
Energy consumed / Saleable product output, for the same product, process and period.
Other required records: Saleable output; energy kWh; machine hours; product; process; period.
Compare water-saving and reuse choices using quality, treatment and process evidence.
What the selected record shows. There is not enough information to choose this option. Obtain the records and evidence about conditions listed below. The supplied budget less cost is 300,000 LKR.
Next step. Obtain the missing records before choosing. Prepare evidence request in the prototype creates a visible, downloadable draft. It is unassigned and not sent.
Cost alone does not establish safe reuse or measured water savings.
Compare each alternative's stated benefit, adverse effects, domain evidence and mandatory constraints. Where cost and budget are supplied, budget balance = budget − option cost. A budget balance alone does not determine domain feasibility or select an option.
Other required records: Water input; usable recycled water; output; water quality; costs; controls.
Identify equipment-repair cases past their recorded response date.
What the selected record shows. Open days past due: 29 days. Follow up overdue case.
Next step. Follow up overdue case; confirm the missing condition evidence. Prepare evidence request in the prototype creates a visible, downloadable draft. It is unassigned and not sent.
Age alone does not establish criticality or a safe operating condition.
Open age = assessment date − received date. Days past due = max(0, assessment date − recorded due date) for open cases. Show documented critical conditions separately.
Example due dates are not legal service standards. Do not alter statutory deadlines by silently subtracting pauses, or infer severity from age alone.
Other required records: Asset; downtime; condition; failure history; production criticality; repair cost.
Check usable stock after the stated unavailable and committed quantities.
What the selected record shows. Uncommitted usable stock: 310 kg. Review replenishment gap.
Next step. Review replenishment gap. Prepare stock review in the prototype creates a visible, downloadable draft. It is unassigned and not sent.
The underlying expiry and quarantine records must be checked before use.
Usable = physical−quarantined−expired (non-overlapping groups). Available = usable−commitments. Additional gap = max(0, new demand−available).
Stock must be compatible by item, lot, condition, expiry and delivery window. Do not allocate quarantined/expired stock or silently erase overcommitment.
Other required records: Lot; stock; commitments; expiry; storage condition; quarantine; demand.
Find missing packaging records for the stated buyer and destination.
What the selected record shows. The required evidence is incomplete for this packaging compliance case. The items below identify what must be obtained or reconciled.
The prototype does not certify packaging or market-entry compliance.
Check each required item and retain its reference. A documented item is not a scientific, legal or institutional approval.
Evidence completeness alone cannot establish suitability, eligibility, safety, permission or method validity.
Other required records: Product; packaging; label version; destination rules; buyer specification; review.
Review chronological buying, production and receipt cash events.
What the selected record shows. Lowest projected cash: -200000.00 LKR; shortfall: 200000.00 LKR; closing cash: 180000.00 LKR. The chronological events explain the difference.
Next step. Review funding and payment timing before committing. Prepare balance review in the prototype creates a visible, downloadable draft. It is unassigned and not sent.
Positive closing cash does not rule out an earlier financing gap.
Order the supplied dated receipts and payments. Start with the stated opening cash; add each receipt and subtract each payment once. Minimum cash is the lowest chronological balance, including opening cash. Shortfall = max(0, −minimum cash). Closing cash is opening + receipts − payments.
These are dated fictional cash assumptions, not actual bank balances or a credit recommendation. A positive closing balance can conceal an earlier shortage. Same-day receipt/payment ordering needs evidence.
Other required records: Receivables; payables; inventory; operating payments; dates; opening cash.
Compare equipment or expansion cash flows under explicit assumptions.
Verified published formula · Discounted cash-flow NPV
What the selected record shows. At the supplied 8% annual discount assumption, the five-year cash flows and residual value give 109,847.353 LKR net present value after the initial investment. The figure compares cash flows under these assumptions.
Next step. Review the cash flows, discount assumptions and constraints. Prepare cash-flow comparison in the prototype creates a visible, downloadable draft. It is unassigned and not sent.
Net present value does not establish technical suitability or investment authority.
NPV = −initial investment + sum of year1…5 net cash flows discounted at the stated annual rate, including residual value once in year5.
Match currency, price year, real/nominal basis and cash-flow timing. The example rate and five-year horizon are assumptions, not institutional financing terms; no credit approval follows.
Other required records: Capital cost; output; demand; operating costs; lifespan; finance; discount rate.
Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations · Guidelines for defining financial economic environmental and social informationInstitution publication · Sections 2.2.2 and 2.2.3, discounting and Net Present Value
The five-year horizon, discount rate and cash assumptions are local settings. Verification does not approve an investment or loan.
Find missing shipment documents before an authorised clearance referral.
What the selected record shows. The required evidence is incomplete for this export documentation case. The items below identify what must be obtained or reconciled.
The prototype does not grant customs, health or export clearance.
Other required records: Shipment; certificates; origin; permits; specification; current requirements; authority.
Find workers with a recorded process-skills gap but no confirmed training.
What the selected record shows. 30 workers are known to be uncovered; 5 have unknown coverage. 65% are confirmed covered.
Next step. Check the records behind the uncovered and unknown groups. Prepare coverage follow-up in the prototype creates a visible, downloadable draft. It is unassigned and not sent.
Attendance does not establish competence or safe operation.
100 × distinct covered eligible units / eligible frame. Known uncovered = frame − covered − unknown.
Count each eligible unit once for the selected service and period. Received messages, attendance, adoption and outcomes are separate measures.
Other required records: Skills needs; training; competence evidence; incidents; roles; shift coverage.
Find missing units, versions and batch references.
What the selected record shows. The required evidence is incomplete for this process records case. The items below identify what must be obtained or reconciled.
Complete metadata do not establish analytical accuracy or product conformity.
Other required records: Process record; batch; timestamp; measurement unit; calibration; source; version.
Source. Sri Lanka publication.
Data needed. Factory registration, inspection evidence, product, destination and relevant export certificate.
Method. Check registration and inspection evidence against the Food Control Administration Unit’s export certification route. Identify destination-specific documentation separately.
Worked example. A processor requests food export certification but has no factory inspection evidence. Check the Food Control Administration Unit’s requirements and request the missing document.
Next step. Request the missing inspection or registration evidence before submitting the application.
