Computes what every stakeholder takes home at ONE hypothetical exit valuation, running the liquidation-preference waterfall and converting SAFEs as if the exit were the price round. Read-only — nothing is written. When the user asks to "run a simulation" without naming a number, do not pick round numbers out of the air: read the company's own valuations first (GetListCapTableRounds for pre/post-money, GetListCapTableSecurities for SAFE valuation caps) and call this once per valuation, plus one clearly below the cheapest and one or two well above the richest, so the ladder shows both a down-round and an upside. Keep it to about five valuations. Report each scenario as: the exit value, the total distributed, and one line per investor with the payout and the cash-out multiple (payout / capital invested, e.g. "20.0x"); call out anyone crossing $1M and $30M, and say plainly when an exit below the last round means liquidation preferences are repaid before common stock. Never hand-calculate any of these numbers.
