Q

The calibration with Excel 2010 Solver does not give optimal coefficients.

A

In Excel version 2010, the solver has a non-negative constraint turned on by default; restricting the model's coefficients to non-negative values, and, as a result, it yields less than optimal solution. This constraint is not relevant for model calibration process, and should be turned off.

As a work-around, please uncheck this option (as shown below) before you click on "Solve".

Q

What do I need to know to use NumXL?

Q

When I try to use the calibration icon, an error message pops stating that solver is not found.

Q

Where can I find a full list of NumXL functions?

Q

Which optimization algorithm are you using?

Q

Why does the calibration function in NumXL shows the constraint's rhs of 0.9999?
