The simplest way is to use the SUM function to add up the sales for the year. The specific implementation will depend on where the values are, so it will depend on what way you have the individual sales entered. There are many ways that you may have them, like with monthly totals or regional totals or totals for individual salespeople, amongst other ways. Say you have the sales individually listed in all the cells from B2 to B125, you could have the following SUM function, in cell B126:
=SUM(B2:B125)

The FV function calculates the future value of an investment.
The PPMT function.
Yes it does.
If you have previous figures to work from there are a few possible ways. You can use the FORECAST function if you have two sets of dependent figures. You could also use a standard formula if there is a pattern in the figures you have already have got. So if sales had gone up by 10% each year, you could increase the last sales you had by 10%. Forecasting is not always precise so to be accurate is not always certain, particularly with something like sales as it can be affected by many factors. So there are lots of functions that could be used.
It automatically calculates them and displays the value in the cell if you have auto-calculation turned on.
We had a profit in the ANNUAL SALES of this year.
The NPER() function.
Surprisingly, it is =AVERAGE(number1, number2,...)
((cur ann sales-pre ann sales) / cur ann sales )* 100
You can figure annual sales in various ways. The easiest way is by adding the opening stock to the purchases. You should them subtract the closing stock for the year and you will get the annual sales.
