Time Calculation Page 1 of 4 J

Time Calculation
Excel can work with time very easily. Time can be entered in various different formats and calculations performed. There are one or two oddities, but nothing which should put you off working with it. See the TimeSheet example for an example. Typing time When time is entered into worksheet it should be entered with a colon between the hour and the minutes, such as 12:30, rather than 12.30 1:30 12:30 20:15 22:45

Excel can cope with either the 24hour system or the am/pm system. To use the am/pm system you must enter the am or pm after the time. You must leave a space between the number and the text. 1:30 AM 1:30 PM 10:15 AM 10:15 PM

Finding the difference between two times You can subtract two time values to find the length of time between. Start 1:30 8:00 8:00 AM End 2:30 17:00 5:00 PM Duration 1:00 =D24-C24 9:00 =D25-C25 9:00 AM If the result is not shown correctly, You may need to reformat the answer. Look at the section about formatting further in this worksheet.

Adding time You can add time to find a total time. This works well until the total time goes above 24 hours. For totals greater than 24 hours you may need to apply some special formatting. Start 1:30 8:00 7:30 AM End 2:30 17:00 5:45 PM Duration 1:00 9:00 10:15 20:15

Formatting time When time is added together the result may go beyond 24 hours. Usually this gives an incorrect result, as in the example below. To correct this error, the result needs to be formatted with a Custom format. Example 1 : Incorrect formatting Start End Duration 7:00 18:30 11:30 8:00 17:00 9:00 7:30 17:45 10:15 Total 6:45 Example 2 : Correct formatting Start End 7:00 18:30 8:00 17:00 7:30 17:45 Total

=SUM(E49:E51)

Duration 11:30 9:00 10:15 30:45

=SUM(E56:E58)

Under worked by Over worked by This is simple example of a timesheet. Instructions : Type the week start date in cell C3, the Week beginning. Use the format dd/mm/yy, the name of the day will appear automatically. The date is then passed down to the Day column. Type the amount of hours you are expected to work in G3, the Normal Hours. This is used later to calculate if have worked over or under the required hours. Type the times you arrive and leave work in the appropriate columns. Use the format of hh:mm. Note The Total Hours cell has been formatted as [hh]:mm. This ensures the total hours can be expressed as a value above 24 hours. If the [hh]:mm format had not been used the Total Hours would show as : If the [hh]:mm format does not show in the cell format dialog box on your computer, it can be created using Format, Cells, Number, Custom.

Age Calculation Page 4 of 4 H

Age Calculation
You can calculate a persons age based on their birthday and todays date. The calculation uses the DATEDIF() function. The DATEDIF() is not documented in Excel 5, 7 or 97, but it is in 2000. (Makes you wonder what else Microsoft forgot to tell us!) Birth date : Years lived : and the months : and the days : 1-Jan-60 52 6 30 =DATEDIF(C8,TODAY(),"y") =DATEDIF(C8,TODAY(),"ym") =DATEDIF(C8,TODAY(),"md")

You can put this all together in one calculation, which creates a text version. Age is 52 Years, 6 Months and 30 Days
="Age is "&DATEDIF(C8,TODAY(),"y")&" Years, "&DATEDIF(C8,TODAY(),"ym")&" Months and "&DATEDIF(C8,TODAY(),"md")&" Days"

Another way to calculate age This method gives you an age which may potentially have decimal places representing the months. If the age is 20.5, the .5 represents 6 months. Birth date : Age is : 1-Jan-60 52.58 =(TODAY()-C23)/365.25
