A spreadsheet has much more capabilities than a calculator. There are far more built in functions than a calculator. You can do things like list all your figures on the spreadsheet, so that you can see them all at once, which you can't do on a calculator. Without having to type them all in again, you can do further calculations on the same figures. You can easily change figures to try different things. You can have all sorts of subtotals and use them for further calculations. You can save all your figures in a file.
These are just a few of the advantages. There are many, many more. A calculator is handy for a quick and simple calculation, but if you want to do anything more than that, a spreadsheet is a better option. A spreadsheet is a calculator and a lot more besides that.
