Back in the days before computers, a Dallas bank built the tallest building in town. In order to provide for drive-in banking, an adjacent 18-story, reinforced concrete (no structural steel) hospital was jacked up, bell-shaped piers supporting it blasted away, and replaced by cylindrical ones. In a discussion of this, one engineering student said, " One misplaced decimal on the slide rule, and the whole building comes down." A bit more severe than a spreadsheet.

I think “Fungible Assets” would be a good name for a band of daytime accountants.
