How Yield Farm Comparison Worksheets Stay Honest
Educational farm comparison: simple APR × time on a shared principal. Picks the highest yield among 2–3 user scenarios. This article walks through the arithmetic without pretending the worksheet is a live quote.
Educational only
Educational comparison only—not a farm recommendation. Uses simple APR without compounding, IL, or gas unless reflected in the APR you enter.
The Question a Worksheet Can Answer
Each scenario yield = principal × APR × days/365. The optimizer reports the maximum yield and its label.
Inputs Worth Labeling
Practical habits
- Enter principal and horizon days.
- Label Farm A and Farm B with APR percents.
- Optionally add Farm C.
- Review the comparison table and best scenario.
Formulas
- Scenario yield: principal × APR% × days/365
- Best scenario: argmax(yields)
Common Mistakes
Treating blog tips as live rates, mixing currencies, and comparing scenarios with different horizons. Keep labels explicit.
