XLCS Real Estate Project Full-Cost Calculation

XLCS Core Version (XLCS Core V8) is officially launched! Leveraging AI tools, extensive VBA code has been used to rewrite previous versions’ function formulas. VBA has advantages in execution efficiency, handling complex logic, automation, and custom functions, enabling advanced features that even complex formulas couldn’t achieve before to meet user needs.

Starting from XLCS Core V8.2, to reduce version complexity and update workload, there will no longer be separate EXCEL and WPS versions. Full compatibility is achieved.

Newly integrated XLCS Beginner Edition (XLCS Lite V1) is suitable for beginners to perform one-click calculations and feature trials. For more calculation conditions, please use XLCS Core Edition. Facing the dazzling features and settings of Core Edition, many beginners may feel overwhelmed, so trying the lightweight Lite version first is recommended. It only extracts conventional economic/technical indicators and key calculation elements: land price, three fee rates, etc., to output reports identical to Core Edition.
