Small business: an escalating storefront rent

Open the Small Business demo (Demo library) to follow along.

A storefront lease that rises a fixed percentage each year is one definition with escalation, demonstrated here on the small-business data.

  1. In Small Business (Demo), find Storefront rent, a monthly outflow to Property Management LLC from Operating Checking.
  2. Its escalation is 3% per year: a fixed amount with a 3% annual rate.
  3. Generate across more than a year and watch the monthly rent step up on the anniversary.
  4. Alongside it, Payroll and Utilities stay flat, so the rising line is clearly the lease.
