Description
Compare a submission with a supplied notice, deadline and total paused-day convention.
A contractual time budget requires a notice origin, elapsed-time unit and explicit pause convention. Numeric day arithmetic can reconcile supplied coordinates without establishing the actual deadline or legally effective notice.
Compare a submission with a supplied notice, deadline and total paused-day convention.
When to use this tool
Use Founder Buyback Deadline Gap when checking a declared active-time or deadline-offset convention.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter noticeDay, deadlineDay, submittedDay, pauseDays. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read elapsedActive, margin. Use the output convention below.
Require nonnegative whole pauseDays, deadlineDay >= noticeDay and submittedDay >= noticeDay+pauseDays. elapsedActive = submittedDay-noticeDay-pauseDays; margin = deadlineDay-submittedDay+pauseDays. Use matching numeric day coordinates.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| noticeDay | Notice Day | Required. Safe integer. |
| deadlineDay | Deadline Day | Required. Safe integer. |
| submittedDay | Submitted Day | Required. Safe integer. |
| pauseDays | Nonnegative whole paused days, deducted from active elapsed time and added to deadline margin. | Required. Safe integer; minimum 0. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| elapsedActive | Elapsed Active | Required. Safe integer. |
| margin | Margin | Required. Safe integer. |

}Limitations and assumptions
- This treats pauses as extending the available interval by their supplied total. No calendar, business-day rule, notice validity or contractual deadline is independently determined.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
- Numeric calculations use binary floating point unless exact decimal-integer arithmetic is explicitly stated. No hidden measurement tolerance or decimal rounding is added; nonfinite or out-of-contract results are rejected. Numeric signed-zero results are exported as zero.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Use the applicable calendar and agreement to establish notice, pauses and deadline rules before interpreting an offset.
