Final Value Results

Final Value results are used to carry out side-by-side comparisons of the final values of outputs for different types of simulations. In order to use them, you need to carefully specify what you wish to compare and how you want to display that comparison. Depending on how your model has been run (e.g., multiple realizations, multiple scenarios, multiple Capture Times User-defined points in time during a simulation at which “Final Value” results are captured for result display. The final time point in the simulation is always included as a Capture Time, but additional times can be added.) and the outputs you have specified to compare (e.g., one output, multiple outputs, vector A one-dimensional array. results, matrix A two-dimensional array. results), there can be a large variety of ways to display the comparison.

Final Value results provide a variety of different charts. One example is a column chart:

You can also display pie charts:

Other chart options include bar charts and stacked bar and column charts.

Results can also be viewed as tables. This is an example of a Final Value result table displaying two outputs, three statistics (based on a probabilistic simulation) and two Capture Times:
