We have a workbook with simple if and sumif and countif statements. The

I am a bit surprised SUMIF & COUNTIF cause this trouble. Orphanned
bulky metadata from drag and drop operations can do it as can ADO.
Particularly in an environment where the document is passed between
different versions of Excel. IME it requires images like JPEG, GIF or
BMP to be involved before you get insane file size increases occurring.
Take a look at MSKB eg

It can be informative to export the thing as an HTML file and take a
careful look at whatever other dross is lurking in there.

I tend to see more issues with Word than Excel myself.
