Default How:Add New Worksheet that copies the cell of the previous sheet

I need to add worksheets all the time to a file we use. When I add the
worksheet I want it to automatically take the value of the previous worksheet
and add it to a cell on the new worksheet.

For example:
Step 1) Value in cell B1 on worksheet 1 is 2000. Formula in C1 is =+B1.
There is just one worksheet in the file.

Step 2) I insert new worksheet with exact formatting of worksheet 1. I want
worksheet2 Cell C1 to add cell C1 on worksheet1 to cell B1 on worksheet2.
Basically just rolling the formula to include the previous worksheet. I can
use a simple formula =B1+Sheet1!C1 Result: 3000 (assuming B1 of Worksheet2
is 1000)

Step 3) BUT- Then I want to insert another worksheet(3), again with the
exact same formatting but now I want cellC1 to pick up the the result from
Worksheet 2 Cell C1 and add it to B1 on worksheet3. This without me having to
actually type the formula to read =A2+Sheet!2B3.

I just want the formula to roll forward and include the previous worksheet's
cell. Reason for need: I need the file to be as simple as possible as it will
be used by very junior computer users in Mongolia! I need a new worksheet
every day.

This seems like a no-brainer but I can't figure it out! Does all that make
sense?
