PowerPoint Presentation to Accompany GO! with Microsoft® Office 2007 Introductory Chapter 11 Using Functions and Tables
Objectives • Use SUM, AVERAGE, MEDIAN, MIN, and MAX Functions • Use COUNTIF and IF Functions, and Apply Conditional Formatting • Use a Date Function • Freeze Panes and Create anExcel Table
Objectives • Format and Print a Large Worksheet • Use Financial Functions • Use Goal Seek • Create a Data Table
Constant Review • Using the $ sign when referencing a cell fixes the cell when copying or using auto fill. • You can fix the Column: $C1 • You can fix the Row: C$1 • Or both: $C$1
Use SUM, AVERAGE, MIN, MEDIAN, and MAX Functions • A function is a predefined formula that Excel has already provided. • A function performs calculations by using specific values in a particular order or structure. • Functions are grouped into categories such as Financial, Logical, etc.
Use SUM, AVERAGE, MIN, MEDIAN, and MAX Functions • Functions can be inserted in several ways: • Use the Function Libraryor Insert Functionbutton. • Use the Formula AutoComplete. • Copy a similar function from another cell and edit the arguments. • Select Insert Function from any of the displayed menus in the Function LibraryGroupor press Shift + F3.
Use COUNTIF and IF Functions, and Apply Conditional Formatting
Use COUNTIF and IF Functions, and Apply Conditional Formatting
Use a Date Function • TheNOWfunction: • retrieves date and time from your computer's calendar and clock and inserts the information into the selected cell • result is formatted as a date and time • places a sequential number in the cell that corresponds to the date and time
Freeze Panes and Create an Excel Table • Freeze Panescommand takes selected rows or columns and then freezes them into place. • The locked rows and columns become separate panes. • A pane is a portion of a worksheet window bounded and separated by other portions, such as vertical or horizontal bars.
Use Financial Functions • Interest = The amount charged for use of borrowed money. • Interest percentage = Rate. • The initial amount of loan = Present value(Pv).
Use Financial Functions • Principal = The total amount that a series of future payments isworth now. • The number of time periods (No# of payments) = nper. • The value at the end of the time periods is Future value (Fv). • The future value is usually zerofor loans (need to pay them off).
Use Goal Seek • Goal Seekis a method to find a specific value for a cell by adjusting the value of one other cell. • Goal Seekworks backward from the desired outcome, to find the input necessary to achieve the goal. • Goal Seekis one of Excel’s What-If Analysis tools.
Create a Data Table • Data Table: • a range of cells that show how changing certain values will affect the results • makes it easy to calculate multiple versions in one operation, and then view and compare the results • A One-variable data table will change the value in only one cell. • A Two-variable data tables will change the values in two cells.
