Simple definition

Common period over which both alternatives are evaluated.

Why it matters

This term changes how inputs, cash flows or results should be interpreted. RATIOXA keeps it explicit so two options are compared on the same basis.

Worked example

Five years of ownership cannot be compared with three years of leasing without a follow-on assumption.
