The results of the above Excel calculation formulas may look something similar to this:Īpart from that, you can combine values from two or more cells in a single cell by using the concatenation operator (&) like this:Ī space character (" ") is concatenated in between cells to separate the words: Raises the number in A2 to the power of 3.įinds the square root of the number in A1. Subtracts the number in A2 from the number in A1.ĭivides the number in A1 by the number in A2.
The following table shows how to perform basic arithmetic calculations in Excel. Instead of entering numbers directly in your calculation formula, you can put them in separate cells, and then reference those cells in your formula, e.g.
Note: to see the result of a scenario, select the scenario and click on the Show button. Next, add 4 other scenarios (70%, 80%, 90% and 100%).įinally, your Scenario Manager should be consistent with the picture below: Enter the corresponding value 0.6 and click on OK again.Ħ. Type a name (60% highest), select cell C4 (% sold for the highest price) for the Changing cells and click on OK.ĥ. On the Data tab, in the Forecast group, click What-If Analysis.Ĥ. However, what-if analysis enables you to easily compare the results of different scenarios. Note: You can simply type in a different percentage into cell C4 to see the corresponding result of a scenario in cell D10. You can use the Scenario Manager to create these scenarios. Create Different Scenariosīut what if you sell 70% for the highest price? And what if you sell 80% for the highest price? Or 90%, or even 100%? Each different percentage is a different scenario. If you sell 60% for the highest price, cell D10 calculates a total profit of 60 * $50 + 40 * $20 = $3800.
