Default How does this formula work?

I found this formula
"=IF(D12="","",(D12/D$9)*1000*DaysInYear/DaysThisQtr)" in my
spreadsheet. The formula result is 3.7

D12 = 54
D$9 = 59,350

I know the "DaysInYear" = 365 and "DaysThisQtr" = 90, but I don't know
how the string text "DaysInYear" and "DaysThisQtr" were set to equal
those values.

They are named ranges, look up 'Named Range' in Help

You've probably got names defined.
Try Insert/ Names/ Define, and see what's there.
