An employee is terminated in violation of employment law. The skill calculates back pay, front pay, and lost benefits, offsets with mitigation earnings, and applies appropriate discount rates under federal or state law.

A plaintiff suffers permanent disability in an auto accident. The skill projects pre-injury earnings, deducts potential post-injury capacity, incorporates a life-care plan, and uses the Norfolk & Western discount framework for present value.

Forensic accounting firms bill by the hour for expert witness and consulting work. The skill streamlines memo drafting, reducing time spent on calculations and documentation.
