FORMULA TAB

FUNCTION LIBRARY FORMULA AUDITING

FUNCTION LIBRARY

Excel has a library of several hundred functions on Formulas Tab that will let you perform a number of mathematical and statistical calculations. For example you can use the sum function to add numbers, average function to compute averages on a list of numbers, the PMT function to figure out payment on a loan, so on and so forth.

Excel’s Functions are grouped into 10 categories:-

• FINANCIAL - calculates interest rates, loan payments , depreciation , amounts etc.

• DATE & TIME – returns the current hour , day of week or year, time or date.

• MATHS & TRIGNOMETRICAL – calculates absolute values , cosines , logarithms etc.

• STATISTICAL – calculates total, average, high and low numbers in a range; standard deviation etc.

• LOOKUP & REFERENCE – searches for and return values from a range; creates hyperlinks to network or internet documents.

7

• DATABASE – calculates average , maximum , minimum etc. In an excel database table.

• TEXT – converts text to upper or lower case , trims characters from the right or left end of a text string , concatenates text strings.

• LOGICAL – evaluates an expression, and returns a value of ‘True’ or ‘False’ ; used to trigger other actions or formatting.

• INFORMATION – returns information from excel or windows about the current status of a cell , object , or the environment.

• ENGINEERING – included with Ms-office, but must be installed separately from the analysis tool pack.

• CUBE – returns a member of tuple from an OLAP cube , calculates the number of items in a set etc.

• COMPATIBILITY – contains the original statistical functions which existed in earlier versions of Excel(renamed).

Parts of a Function

• Each function has a specific order—called syntax—which must be followed in order for the function to work correctly.

• The basic syntax to create a formula with a function is to insert an equals sign (=), function name (SUM, for example, is the function name for addition), and argument.

• Arguments contain the information you want the formula to calculate, such as a range of cell references.


9

Working with argumentsArguments must be enclosed in parentheses. Individual values or cell references inside the parentheses are separated by either colons or commas.

• Colons create a reference to a range of cells.

For example, =AVERAGE(E19:E23) would calculate the average of the cell range E19 through E23.

• Commas separate individual values, cell references, and cell ranges in parentheses. If there is more than one argument, you must separate each argument by a comma.

For example, =COUNT(C6:C14,C19:C23,C28) will count all the cells in the three arguments that are included in parentheses.


10

• Select the cell where the answer will appear (F15, for example).• Type the equals sign (=), then enter the function name (SUM, for example).

• Enter the cells for the argument inside the parentheses.

• Press Enter, and the result will appear.

FORMULA AUDITING


The process of examining a worksheet for errors in formulas is referred to as Formula auditing.


12

Trace PrecedentsYou have to pay $96.00. To show arrows that indicate which cells are used to calculate this value, execute the following steps.

• Select cell C13.

• On the Formulas tab, in the Formula Auditing group, click Trace Precedents.

•Result:

As expected, Total cost and Group size are used to calculate the Cost per person.


13

Remove Arrows

To remove the arrows, execute the following steps.

• On the Formulas tab, in the Formula Auditing group, click Remove Arrows.


14

Trace Dependents• Select cell C12.• On the Formulas tab, in the Formula Auditing group, click Trace

Dependents.

• Result:As expected, the Cost per person depends on the Group size.


15

By default, Excel shows the results of formulas. To show the formulas instead of their results, execute the following steps.•On the Formulas tab, in the Formula Auditing group, click Show Formulas.

•Result:

Show Formulas

However, instead of clicking show formulas, you can also press CTRL + (`). you can find this key above the tab key.


16

To check for common errors that occur in formulas, execute the following steps.• Enter the value 0 into cell C12.•On the Formulas tab, in the Formula Auditing group, click Error Checking.

•Result. Excel finds an error in cell C13. The formula tries to divide a number by 0.

Error Checking


17

Evaluate FormulaTo debug a formula by evaluating each part of the formula individually, execute the following steps.• Select cell C13.• On the Formulas tab, in the Formula Auditing group, click Evaluate

Formula.

• Click Evaluate four times.

• Excel shows the formula result.
