Simple Calculating Costs
I have been given an assignment for school. I need to use Excel but do not
have any experience with it. I need to develope a model for calculating the cost to re-carpet our classroom. Our instructor is emphasizing the quality of the model being important. Where should I start, any ideas to lead me. Thank-you Thank-you |

Simple Calculating Costs
Make a list of the variables (floor area, cost per square meter, and
whatever else is in the formula). Assign one cell for each variable. Enter a caption so it's obvious what the cell contains. Assign a name for each of the cells containing data. Assign a cell for the result. Add a caption, and explanation if there's anything to explain. Enter the formula, using names rather than cell references. Put a bit of effort into making the sheet *look* good. "Tanker350" wrote in message ... I have been given an assignment for school. I need to use Excel but do not have any experience with it.
