Default Can I compare two worksheets using Excel?

Hello, I am trying to comparing two worksheets with heavy data volume and
digging out the duplicated entries between the two worksheets. For example,

Worksheet 1
Vendor name Invoice Key PO Number Amount
1 ABC ER006 B0045900 $10,000
2 GHI PC001 B0050001 $12,000
3 XYZ ER009 B0049299 $12,999
4 WW PC005 B0005200 $54,000

Worksheet 2
Vendor name Invoice Key PO Number Amount
1 BBC PC005 B0005000 $50,000
2 DF PC010 B0060010 $999.99
3 GHI PC001 B0050001 $12,000
4 GHI PC002 B0050001 $5,000

The finding should be that the GHI transaction in the amount of $12,000 is
on both worksheets. (#2 on Worksheet 1 matches #3 on Worksheet 2) It would be
a tidious task and consumes a lot of time if I do it mannually. Is there a
way I can do it much faster with Excel's help?

I'd appreciate your suggestions and comments.
