SPREADSHEET
For accountants, spreadsheets are an indispensable tool of their trade.
They use spreadsheets, also called worksheets, to keep track of a
company’s income and expenses. A well-balanced spreadsheet helps
the owner or the manager to get a clear picture of his or her company’s
financial status. Oftentimes, crucial decisions are not made until the
company’s spreadsheet has been analyzed. That is how important
spreadsheets are.

What is
Spreadsheet?
Spreadsheet refers to the spreadsheet program which
is the electronic version of the familiar columnar pad. It
is an application that helps the user to create
spreadsheets commonly used for budgets,
forecasting, and finance-related tasks.
What is
Spreadsheet?
Excel is a spreadsheet program that allows you to store, organize,
and analyze information. While you may believe Excel is only used
by certain people to process complicated data, anyone can learn
how to take advantage of the program's powerful features. Whether
you're keeping a budget, organizing a training log, or creating an
invoice, Excel makes it easy to work with different types of data.

Skills Needed in Life
In Excel, formulas are tools that you can use to
edit, analyze, and create calculations for
worksheet data. One of the most valuable of this is
the ability to store math formulas in individual cells.
A formula is simply a mathematical operation you
can perform in your worksheet. It is a sequence of
values, cell references, names, functions and
operators that are contained in a cell. The formula
produces a new value from the existing value.
Advanced Spreadsheet
Skills Needed in Life
A formula can contain up to 1024
characters and must always start with an
equal sign (=). It can add, subtract, multiply
or divide two numbers, displaying the
answer in a cell that you choose. When you
type a formula into a cell, Excel makes
every attempt to display an answer to the
formula.
How to Enter a Formula in
a Worksheet Cell?
1. Click on the cell where you want to enter a formula and
type = (equal sign) as the first character of your formula.
2. Enter a value or select the cell that includes the value
you want in the formula.
3. Add the necessary operators or functions. Use
parentheses, if applicable.
4. When the formula is complete, click on the Enter button
on the Formula bar or press Enter.
5. Observe that the result of the formula you created
appears in the cell, while the actual formula appears in
the Formula bar.
Using Math
Operators
Excel always knows
what type of
calculations you want to
perform. When you
create a formula, you
include symbols, called
math operators, which
tell Excel the kind of
math operations you
want to perform.
Using Math Operators
When you enclose part of a
formula within a pair of
parentheses, Excel evaluates
first the formula inside the
parentheses followed by the
rest. The computer reads it
from left-to-right flow
calculation.
Understanding Cell
Referencing
In copying and moving formulas in a
worksheet, Excel assumes that you
want to copy the formula’s calculation,
and not the cells involved in the
calculation. Using cell referencing, you
can control how formulas in a cell is
displayed when you paste or drag them
to a new location. There two basic
types of cell referencing: the relative
and the absolute cell references.
Using Relative
Referencing
When you copy or
move a formula, by
default, Excel changes
the cell references in
the copies of the
formulas to reflect the
relative location of the
formula from the cell
references in the
formula.
Using Absolute
Referencing
You use an absolute reference formula
when you want to anchor cell references
in a formula. In absolute referencing, the
cell references always point to a specific
location regardless of where the formula
is moved or copied. When you anchor
cell references, Excel will not adjust
them when you copy the formula to a
different location in a worksheet.
To use an absolute
reference:
1. Click on the cell where you want to enter a
formula.
2. Type the equal sign (=) to begin the formula.
3. Select the cell to be computed then enter an
arithmetic operator.
4. Select another cell then press the F4 key on
the keyboard to make the cell reference
absolute. Observe the $ signs added to the
cell reference.
