15 How do formula’s work in Excel? Click on a cell address, A3 and type in a number into e.g. 3 to use as an example Click on another cell, say B5,where you want to put the results of your calculation Type in the calculation = 2 * A3 and see the result 6 in B5

16 Using other operators You can use the arithmetic operators, +,-,* and / to do calculations. In cell B6 type in =2*A3+5 and see the result in B5 of 11 Change the contents of B7 to =(2*A3+5)/2 and see the result 5.5 Change the contents of B8 to = Log((2*A3+5)/2) and see the result 0.740363 Change the contents of A3 to 4 and see how Excel recalculates everything

17 Formula Calculations

18 Instructor will share how to work with a range of cells Goleta Lompoc Santa Maria Press ESC key to stop presentation17

19 Work with a range of cells Change the contents of B9 to =SUM(B5..B8) and see the result in B9 of 28.31291 Change the contents of B10 to =AVERAGE(B5..B9) and see the result in B10 of 11.32517 Your sheet should now look like the next slide

20 After adding ranges

21 Open your Budget file If My2015Budget2 is on your Flash Drive, open it. If My2015Budget2 is on your Gdrive, o download it to your MyDocuments folder o Open it If you don’t have a file from last week Click here to download it into your My Documents folderhere Click File/Save as and save with the name My2015Budget3

22 Instructor will share how to create totals for each month. Goleta Lompoc Santa Maria Press ESC key to stop presentation21

23 Create totals for each month Incomes and Expenses In cell B9 load a formula for determining the sum of the income rows above it, e.g.=SUM(B3:B8) Copy and paste this formula all the way along this row to column N, using Autofill Do the same kind of thing for the expenses on row 19 using the formula =SUM(B11..B18) to add up the expenses for July. Autofill B19 across to column N In cell B20 fill in the formula for nett income which is =B9-B19 Autofill B20 across to column N

24 Adding up Incomes and Expenses

25 Instructor will share how to create totals, averages, max and mins Goleta Lompoc Santa Maria Press ESC key to stop presentation24

Label the new column headings o Type Sum into cell O1 o Type Average into cell P1 o Type Max into cell Q1 o Type Min into cell R1

27 Create a Sum for all the items in all the rows In cell O3 fill it with a formula that gives the sum of all the entries in row 3 which is =SUM(B3..N3). Make this work for all the rows by auto filling cell O3 down to O20 Put a test number to show that it works. e.g. put 10 into cell C4 and see what happens to cell O4 Your spreadsheet should look like this except the values themselves might be different.this

28 Sum across the rows

29 Create an Average for all the items in all the rows In cell P3 fill it with a formula that gives the average of all the entries in row 3 which is =AVERAGE(B3:N3). Make this work for all the rows by auto filling cell P3 down to P20 Your spreadsheet should look like this except the values themselves might be different.this

30 Create Maximum and Minimums for the rows Do the same thing for column Q putting the formula =MAXB3..N3) into cell Q3 and auto filling down Do the same thing for column R putting the formula =MIN (B3..N3) into cell R3 and auto filling down

31 After adding Average,Max and Min
