Using calculation operators in Excel formulas
• . Excel follows general mathematical rules for calculations,
which is Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division,
and Addition and Subtraction, or the acronym PEMDAS (Please
Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally).
• Using parentheses allows you to change that calculation order.
ARITHMETIC OPERATORS
SUM Function
• To sum a range of cells, use the SUM function.
AVERAGE
• The AVERAGE function in Excel calculates the average
(arithmetic mean) of a group of numbers. The AVERAGE
function ignores logical values, empty cells and cells that
contain text.
Multiply
• To multiply numbers in Excel, use the asterisk symbol (*) or the
PRODUCT function.
MAX
• To find the maximum value in Excel, use the MAX function.
MIN
• To find the minimum value, use the MIN function.
Probability Definition in Math
• Probability is a measure of the likelihood of an event to occur.
Many events cannot be predicted with total certainty.
• We can predict only the chance of an event to occur i.e., how
likely they are going to happen, using it.
• Probability can range from 0 to 1, where 0 means the event to
be an impossible one and 1 indicates a certain event.
• Probability for Class 10 is an important topic for the students
which explains all the basic concepts of this topic.
• The probability of all the events in a sample space adds up to 1.

Excel Line
Charts
Line charts show the data as a continuous
line.
Radar charts can only show data that can be ordered from low to high, and suited fo
showing similarities and outliers in the data.
Excel has three types of radar
charts:
•Radar ( )
•Filled radar ( )

Radar charts show data as as vertices on a
polygon.

Radar With Markers
Radar with Markers is similar to radar chart. The only difference is tha
the data points are highlighted with markers.

Now, she wants to know what should be per month’s production to achieve the break-even point for her business.
We need to enter all these details given above into the worksheet area from this information. Below, we have listed the
same.
To find the break-even point, Ms. Suji must put in some formula to find the total cost.
Step 1:
We should enter the formula as Total Cost = (Fixed + Other) + (Variable * Units).as Total Cost = (Fixed + Other) +
(Variable * Units).
Step 2:
To find the sales value, we must enter one more formula, i.e., Units * Sale Value.
Step 3:
Now, enter the formula for BEP, i.e., Sale Value – Total Cost.
We need to find the number of tires Ms. Suji wants to produce to zero the break-even point value.
Step 4:
We can find this by manually entering numbers in the “Units Required” cell. For example, now we will enter the value
as 200 and see what the BEP is.
We got a break-even point of -20,000. Suppose we keep entering until we get the break-even point amount as 0. It
will take a lot of time. But, we can use the “Goal Seek” tool to identify the number of units required to achieve the
break-even point.
Next, we will open the Goal Seek tool from the
DATA tab.
For the first option of Goal Seek (Set cell), choose the cell BEP cell i.e., B10.
The second option of “Goal Seek” is “To value.” We must enter zero because the “Set cell“(BEP cell) value should
equal zero, which is our goal.
The final option is “By changing cell,”i.e., by changing the cell, we want to make the BEP cell (Set cell) value zero
(To value).
So, by finding the “Units Required” cell, we need to achieve the goal of BEP = 0, so we select cell B7.
Now, click on “OK.” As a result, “Goal Seek” will calculate to set the Excel break-even point cell to
zero.
“Goal Seek” has found the “Units Required” to get the “BEP” as zero. So, Ms. Suji must produce 400 tires in a month
to achieve the Break-Even Point
.
For E3 cells, give a link to the BEP cell and B10 cell.
Now, we must select the newly created table, as shown
below.
For the “Row input cell,” we must choose the ” Variable Cost Per Unit
cell i.e., B4 cell.
We have selected the B4 cell because we have put different “Variable Cost Per Unit” row-wise in the newly created
table. Accordingly, we have chosen the “Variable Cost Per Unit” as the “Row input cell.”
For the “Column input cell,” we must choose the “Units Required” cell because unit data are shown in columns in
the newly created table.
Click on Ok; we may get the data table in Excel like the below one.
So, now we will look at the green-colored cells in the table. For example, if the variable cost per unit is 144, Ms. Suji
must produce 380 tires monthly. Similarly, if the price is 150, she must make 400 tires. Finally, if the cost price is 155,
then she must produce 422 tires in a month to achieve BEP.
