New EOM6 Discussion

[MasterBrad]

I am also working on this EOM today and it is utterly terrible.

I have been using this thread as my northstar to guide me through the squalls on this sea of reserves and lead me to the wondrous shores of associateship. I spent a few minutes thinking up a nautically-themed metaphor once the idea popped in to my mind, so needless to say, progress has been slow.

To answer Muhammad Ali's question, as far as I can tell we don't need to fill in those gray shaded cells, but it would be good if someone else could confirm that as well.

Thanks for replying Brad.
One more follow up Q. I'm a little confused as to what task 1 requires.
Is it a summary email and then another summary of the email?? Cause what I have so far is a monster email explaining every aspect of the model now I'm confused whether I need to write a summary of that email as well.
Clearly this one is kicking my ___

I thought the initial e-mail was a summary of the updated reserve calculations with mention of methodology and any adjustments you made. I thought the more thorough explanation of the model was meant to be included in the recommendations for updating the documentation for the model. If you need a summary of your summary for the first part, I think you may have written a bit too much.
