True or False: Every inflation category must be assigned a number to avoid defaulting.

The assertion that every inflation category must be assigned a number to avoid defaulting is not accurate, leading to the conclusion that the statement is false. In Argus Enterprise, while assigning inflation rates to various categories can be important for accurate financial modeling and forecasting, it is not strictly necessary to assign a number to every category to prevent default.

The flexibility in how inflation is handled allows users to either input specific inflation rates relevant to their property types or utilize default settings, depending on their analysis needs. Moreover, users can select which categories truly require distinct inflation rates based on their asset characteristics and market conditions. Thus, failing to assign a number to each inflation category does not automatically trigger a default scenario.

This understanding emphasizes the role of user discretion and the capacity of Argus Enterprise to accommodate various workflows and property types, which would not necessitate a default across all categories.
