More context: Imagine the first tab says Machine Budget Summary with several line items and a summation total line. Each of those line items would pull from another tab that has design calcs to produce a price for that component. That price then is referenced by the main Machine Budget Summary tab. There are anywhere from 3 to 10 component tabs for any machine budget file I am developing. For my job, I am required to do several of these budget files per week and I haven't found a way to make this less tedious. Here are the challenges: many machines have different components, so I need to cop ..read more

I work in education and create a lot of custom reports that our data warehouse can't do (mainly weekly/monthly monitoring of data and yearly trend reports). I've been teaching myself how to make dashboards over the last year or so and somehow I JUST NOW learned about PowerQuery, Macros and Arrays. That said, I am just learning by trial and random YouTube videos. Are there any free/cheap courses you'd recommend to learn these things? After I get my initial report created, it's typically turned into a template so others can just plunk new data in on a source page and then it's just small update ..read more

I'm working on a budget report and need assistance with a specific task. My goal is to sum up amount for a quarter based on a selected month and category. For instance, if I choose August from a dropdown list, I want to add up expenses for the months of July and August within Quarter 3, considering only the selected category (e.g., Income). The formula I thought was going to work is this; =SUMPRODUCT((Budget!$C$9:$N$34)*(Budget!$B$9:$B$34=pivot!$I34)*(Budget!$C$6:$N$6=pivot!$L$31)) I hope I made myself clear.

Hi guys. I'm a college student who is a teachers assistant for my Finance professor. I am creating an excel sheet and in short I am having trouble creating a formula using the DDB balance that doesn't go below a certain number (Salvage value) Let Useful life = 5 yearas Context: DDB is a depreciation method and it's calculated like (1/useful life) * 200% So I need a formula that takes my start of year book value * 40% (depreciation rate)= Depreciation Expense. Then Start of year book value - depreciation expense = end of year book value. Rinse and repeat. But the thing is, the book value can n ..read more

I'm messing with baseball stats and I have a top level worksheet, Standings!, formatted like this: Team Total Start End W L Pct 1900 =H1+1 =I1+1...

I am trying to calculate the standard deviation of a portfolio from a covariance matrix. I cannot get the formula given to work, which is: =SQRT(MMULT(MMULT(G2:G15,B28:O41),TRANSPOSE(G2:G15)*252)) where G2-G15 are my minimum values and B28-O41 is the covariance grid. I entered it with control+shift+enter. I get a #VALUE! error which does not give me any further details. The video tutor advised to use 252 as the number of open market days per year. Any ideas? Not sure if I gave enough information. Excel newbie. Thanks! submitted by /u/mmthompsonmd [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Myself included sadly. I have two spreadsheets. Both contain matching receipt numbers. One of them gives me an item breakdown, but no invoice total. The other gives me an invoice total, but not an item breakdown. Please see the following examples: https://preview.redd.it/u90y7rfwmwwc1.png?width=1080&format=png&auto=webp&s=7102aa4f23aef65fd2e6f237d805e3af199d4573 What I'm trying to do, is get every instance of the receipt number on the right to receive the Invoice total from the spreadsheet on the left. Everyone keeps jumping to VLookup, then HLookup, but nobody can get it to work ..read more

I have a project where the data is on a total of 3 worksheets in the same workbook. Worksheet 1 has the car brand and space where to put the formula. Worksheet 2 has only the ranking of the car brands and the price it sold at. Worksheet 3 has the ranking of the car brands. I need to come up with a formula where it finds the total amount the car brand sold (worksheet1) but by using the ranking. For example, using Ford as the lookup value on sheet 1, it needs to find the total dollar amount the cars sold ($30,000) by using the ranking of 1 since thay is what toyota is ranked on worksheet 3.
