Or another stab at it from a different angle. If you do have one cell next
to something labeled College Expenses, then click on the cell with the amount
and alter the formula.

If it just has a number in it like 3500, then change it to =3500+500 (or
just change it to 4000).
If it already has a formula in it such as =SUM(G4:G7) then change it to
=SUM(G4:G7)+500

I need to know how to add the $500.00 to a spreadsheet called college expenses.
There are no empty cell in the spreadsheet.
