this lesson you will learn functions that can help you when using MS Excel.
TARGET COMPETENCY
 Define the commonly used Microsoft Excel Functions
 Use conditional Functions
 Use Microsoft Excel in market research

OBJECTIVES

At the end of the lesson, you are expected to:


a. Familiarize the students with the most common used functions in Microsoft Excel;
b. Use several conditional functions available in MS Excel; and
c. Use MS Excel as a viable tool in market research and product development.

SUBJECT MATTER

Microsoft Excel

Developed by Microsoft in 1985, with the sole purpose of helping businesses


compile all their financial data, yearly credit, and yearly debit sheets. Fast
forward to the future after 33 years, it is now the most commonly used
program for creating graphs and pivot tables. Excel has been used not just
for computations but also for record keeping and storing of data. It is a
productivity tool that is a part of Microsoft Office presented on rows and columns that can
be manipulated mathematically. It is also available in most platforms and devices.

Before we start you must remember the following:


SYNTAX = The proper arrangement of words or codes
FUNCTION = Built-in Codes in MS Excel that you can use
RANGE = The Scope of cells
CRITERIA = a condition or a cell that will be used in the function
Commonly used Functions
1. Sum
2. Count
3. Average
4. IF Statements
5. Concatenate
6. AND
7. Max & Min

SUM FUNCTION - allows you to sum any number of columns or rows by selecting or typing.
Syntax: =FUNCTION(Range)

Output:
COUNT FUNCTION - allows you to count cells with numbers only by selecting or typing.
Syntax: =FUNCTION(Range)

Output:
AVERAGE FUNCTION - allows you to compute for the middle of the data set.
Syntax: =FUNCTION(Range)

Output:
IF FUNCTION - allows you to output a text if the case is valid or invalid.
Syntax: =FUNCTION(CRITERIA,”True”,”False”)

Output:

The statements “True” or “False” can be change depending on what you want/need. It can be
a Yes or No. The first statement after the Criteria will be displayed if the logical statement is
valid, otherwise it will display the next statement.
CONCATENATE FUNCTION - allows you to combine data from different cells in one cell..
Syntax: =FUNCTION(CRITERIA,” ”,CRITERIA)

Output:
AND FUNCTION - allows you to check the value of the cells and it will return a TRUE or FALSE
statement.
Syntax: =FUNCTION(CRITERIA)

Output:

You can add as many Criteria as you want. In order to return a TRUE value all of your
statements should be valid. You will get a FALSE is your criteria or at least one of it, if you
have more than 1, is invalid.
MAX & MIN FUNCTION - allows you to output the maximum value or the minimum value on
your selected cells.
Syntax: =FUNCTION(RANGE)

Output:
Output:
