Use these formula-based calculators to estimate borrowing base availability, debt service coverage, and acquisition finance capacity before preparing a financing request. Each calculator relies on user-entered assumptions and standard credit formulas. The output is a screening estimate for borrowers, sponsors, operators, and advisors preparing a lender-facing RFQ.
Financely works with companies seeking structured debt, trade finance, asset-based lending, project finance, Commercial Real Estate finance, and acquisition finance. These calculators help borrowers organize the numbers that lenders typically review before moving into underwriting, diligence, term sheet discussions, and capital provider distribution.
Choose the calculator that matches your transaction type. Each tool opens in a popup and shows the formula used, the required inputs, and the estimated outputs.
Estimate borrowing base availability for receivables finance, inventory finance, commodity finance, and asset-based lending.
Estimate DSCR using cash flow available for debt service, loan amount, interest rate, amortization, and payment frequency.
Estimate acquisition debt capacity using EBITDA, debt multiple, free cash flow, target DSCR, seller note, and equity requirement.
These calculators do not estimate lender appetite, approval probability, bank pricing, instrument availability, collateral acceptance, or legal enforceability. They calculate outputs from the numbers entered by the user. That makes them suitable for early screening, RFQ preparation, and internal transaction planning.
| Calculator | Formula | Best Used For |
|---|---|---|
| Borrowing Base Availability | Borrowing Base = Eligible Receivables × Receivables Advance Rate + Eligible Inventory × Inventory Advance Rate - Reserves | Trade finance, receivables finance, inventory finance, commodity finance, and asset-based lending. |
| Debt Service Coverage Ratio | DSCR = CFADS or NOI ÷ Annual Debt Service. Annual debt service is calculated using the standard amortizing loan payment formula. | Project finance, Commercial Real Estate finance, acquisition finance, private credit, and infrastructure debt. |
| Acquisition Finance Debt Capacity | Debt Capacity By EBITDA = EBITDA × Debt Multiple. Debt Capacity By DSCR = maximum debt supported by cash flow and target DSCR. | Business acquisitions, management buyouts, search fund-style acquisitions, and sponsor-backed transactions. |
The calculators are for preliminary screening only. Results depend entirely on user-provided inputs and should not be treated as a financing offer, commitment, approval, valuation, legal opinion, tax advice, securities advice, investment advice, bank quote, or lender term sheet.
Actual financing terms may depend on jurisdiction, borrower credit quality, collateral eligibility, debtor concentration, financial statements, cash controls, legal documentation, KYC, AML and sanctions checks, lender mandate, insurance, title, security package, repayment source, and third-party diligence.
Financely is a corporate finance advisory platform. Financely is not a direct lender and does not guarantee funding. Transactions may be structured, reviewed, or distributed through banks, private credit funds, insurers, regulated intermediaries, or other capital providers where applicable.
If your numbers show a financeable transaction, prepare your RFQ with the relevant documents, assumptions, counterparties, collateral details, and repayment source.
© Financely. These calculators are provided for commercial screening and transaction preparation. All outputs are indicative and subject to diligence, documentation, lender review, compliance checks, legal review, collateral validation, and final credit approval.
For receivables finance, inventory finance, commodity finance, and asset-based lending.
Eligible Receivables = Gross Receivables - Ineligible Receivables
Eligible Inventory = Gross Inventory × (1 - Inventory Haircut)
Borrowing Base = Eligible Receivables × Receivables Advance Rate + Eligible Inventory × Inventory Advance Rate - Reserves
The result shows estimated collateral availability based on the assumptions entered by the user. Lenders may apply additional eligibility rules, concentration limits, debtor exclusions, dilution reserves, field exam adjustments, title checks, and control account requirements.
For project finance, Commercial Real Estate finance, acquisition finance, and private credit.
Periodic Rate = Annual Interest Rate ÷ Payments Per Year
Number Of Payments = Amortization Years × Payments Per Year
Periodic Payment = Principal × [r(1+r)^n] ÷ [(1+r)^n - 1]
Annual Debt Service = Periodic Payment × Payments Per Year
DSCR = CFADS Or NOI ÷ Annual Debt Service
The calculator applies the standard amortizing loan payment formula. Actual lender sizing may also consider cash sweep mechanics, sculpted amortization, reserves, taxes, maintenance capex, working capital, covenants, and refinancing risk.
For business acquisitions, management buyouts, and sponsor-backed acquisition finance.
Debt Capacity By EBITDA = Adjusted EBITDA × Debt Multiple
Maximum Annual Debt Service = Annual Free Cash Flow For Debt Service ÷ Target DSCR
Debt Capacity By DSCR = Present Value Of Maximum Debt Service Payments
Estimated Senior Debt Capacity = Lower Of EBITDA-Based Capacity And DSCR-Based Capacity
Equity Required = Purchase Price + Fees - Senior Debt - Seller Note
This calculator compares a multiple-based debt capacity estimate with a cash-flow-based debt capacity estimate. Actual acquisition financing may also depend on quality of earnings, customer concentration, working capital peg, seller rollover, security package, covenant headroom, management depth, and industry cyclicality.
