Excel can generate monthly income statements by typing "Income" in cell A1 of the worksheet. Below that, enter all monthly income. In cell A2, enter "Expenses", and then monthly expenses such as payroll, parts, goods, etc.

A spreadsheet application tool that analyzes data in a table format using formulas.

a software program that allows the easy analysis and manipulation of data using tables and formulas

It has to be done through the file properties. If you open the file properties, which can be done through the File menu, then you can changed the properties, including the author.

In Excel a Gantt chart is the equivalent of a bar chart. Having put in the data you need into the spreadsheet, you then start the Chart Wizard, by either going to the Insert menu and picking the Chart option or clicking on the Chart Wizard icon on the standard toolbar. Then you can pick the bar chart and continue with the process of creating your chart with the Chart Wizard. There are various options you can pick. Which ones you use will be down to your own preferences.

If the word Yes is in E8, the following formula will put Correct in the cell that the formula is in, or else leave it blank, which is done by have a two sets of double quotes with no gap between them after the final comma.

=IF(E8="Yes","Correct","")

You can exchange the Yes with whatever you are testing for and the Correct with whatever you want to put in the cell.

Another thing you can do is use the IsBlank function to test if the cell is empty. If it is empty it will leave the cell with the formula blank or will put the word Correct in, no matter what is in the cell E8 if it is not blank. That may not be exactly what you want to do, but this would be the formula.

=IF(IsBlank(E8),"","Correct")

If you want to allow numbers to be in the cell, but no text you could use the IsText function:

=IF(Not(IsText(E8)),"","Correct")

Probably the first formula or a slight variation of it is what you are looking for.

This can be done fairly easily using Excel's random number generator and a couple of simple equations.

First, you need to specify the auto correlation coefficient you wan to use and the mean value and error variance of the AR1 process. For example, you could say that the auto correlation coefficient is 0.5, and that the mean = 100 and the errors are ~ N ( 0, 102 ); i.e., the errors are normally distributed with a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 10. Keep in mind that for the AR1 series to be stationary, the absolute value of the auto correlation coefficient must be less than 1.

Then using Excel's random number generator you would generate an array of error terms equal in length to the AR1 series you want to create. This is done as follows:

1) Type the following formula into the first cell of the error array, say cell B11

= NORMINV(RAND(), 0, 10)

[Note: The values 0 and 10 in the above equation represent the mean and standard deviation of the error distribution. Ordinarily errors have a mean of 0, but you should substitute a relative cell reference for the standard deviation so that it can be changed without re-entering the formula.]

2) Copy the formula to as many cells as you want to have terms in the AR1 series

3) Now, start the AR1 series in a separate array, say cell C11. Begin by making the first term equal to the mean value; for example, = 100. Then in cell C12 type

= 100 + 0.5*C11 + B11

[Note: The values 100 and 0.5 in the above equation represent the mean and auto correlation values. As before you should substitute a relative cell reference so that they can be changed without re-entering the formula. Be careful to make sure that the cell containing the mean value is the same in both formulas.]

4) You should then copy that formula down the entire array for the AR1 series.

To make sure you have done everything correctly you can check your AR1 series as follows:

The mean of an AR1 process = mean/(1 - auto correlation coefficient). In this case, with a mean of 100 and an auto correlation coefficient of 0.5 the mean value = 200. Thus, if you take the average of the AR1 array, it should be approximately = 200.

The variance of an AR1 process = error variance/(1 - autocorr2 ). In this case with a variance of 100 and an auto correlation coefficient of 0.5 we would get 133.33 for a variance or about 11.55 for a standard deviation. Thus if you take the standard deviation of the AR1 series you should get 11.55.

Hope this helps.

You use the Freeze Panes option to do it. Put the cursor on row below the column headings you want and/or in the column to the right of the of the row headings you want. Then you can apply it. It is usually on the Window menu.

Which of the following is a number that can be entered into a cell?

A colon would be between the two cell references that make a range like in these:

=SUM(B2:B10)

=AVERAGE(V20:X23)

I am not sure what you mean by "deduct," but I will interpret the meaning as "subtract." You subtract dates the same way you subtract any other number, but you result may not have meaning if you mix formats, such as subtracting a date from a percentage. If you have a formula in B1 that calculates a date and you want to subtract a date in A1, then put the following formula in C1: =B1-A1.

No. Addition and subtraction are the last operations, done on a left to right basis as they have equal precedence. See the related question below.

There is no simple answer to that. There are a huge range of functions in Excel, all with their own specific uses. So it would depend on what you want to do. To use some functions would require knowledge of other areas. Statisticians would have use for the more specialised statistical functions for example.

You can drag while a filter is active, but only visible cells will have data put into them. So when the filter is removed, there may be gaps in the set of cells that have data in them. Any cells that were not visible when the filter was active will not have had the data dragged into them.

A Relative reference will change. A mixed reference can also change. Only an absolute reference will not change. See the related question below.

If you go into File and Page Setup, it should let you change the Orientation. Check all other settings in relation to printing, to see if there are other things you can't change. Check that you have the correct kind of printer set up. You may need to re-install the printer software. First see do you have the same problem in Word or Powerpoint or any other applications, as it may be to do with the printer or something else, not Excel. Check are there any other problems with Excel itself. Maybe even try setting up a new file, to see is it something in the particular one you are working on that won't let you change the orientation. You may have to do the whole file again, though that is unlikely.

No. Microsoft Excel is an accounting worksheet application, not a database. Microsoft Access is a small, simple, but capable, individual-user database application, and Oracle is among the largest of Enterprise-class database applications, and can accommodate the needs of gigantic corporations.

If you have a cell address H12 and want to change the column, change the H to the letter of the column you want. If you want to change the row, change the 12 to the number of the row you want.

If you are referring to MS Excel, A1 represents the cell in the top left corner of a worksheet.
