What this page actually processes

Field	Control	Default example	Validation role
Starting customers	Number	`1000`	Starting customers is read by the browser as a number value before the tool runs.
Ending customers	Number	`1100`	Ending customers is read by the browser as a number value before the tool runs.
New customers	Number	`250`	New customers is read by the browser as a number value before the tool runs.

Reproduce the built-in example

Start with Starting customers = 1000; Ending customers = 1100; New customers = 250, then run Customer Retention Rate Calculator. Change one input at a time so the effect on the result remains traceable.

After validating starting customers, ending customers, new customers, the page displays its result in the output workspace and enables the relevant copy or download action.

Formula and variable relationship

Subtracts newly acquired customers from ending customers, then divides by starting customers. Retention subtracts customers acquired during the period from the ending customer count before comparing with the starting base, so newly acquired users are not mistaken for retained users. The implemented expression is “(end-newCustomers)/start*100”. The page validates starting customers, ending customers, new customers before formatting the result in %.

Sensitivity check: change only starting customers from 1000 people to 1,100 people. With every other input unchanged, customer retention rate moves from 85 to 77.27 %. This provides a reproducible input-to-result check.
