9 April 2020 Excel Dashboards & Reports Analyze data in Microsoft Excel will provide you with immediate insights about your data. It uses artificial intelligence to quickly create summary reports and high-level visualizations. You can even directly ask it questions about your data using "normal" conversational language. Analyze data, is the new artificial intelligence feature built into Excel. It does a really good job in analyzing your data and giving you a summary. Analyze data/Ideas feature is available in Excel for Office 365. Simply click a cell inside your data range, and then click the Ideas button on the Home tab. Ideas in Excel will analyze your data, and return interesting visuals about it in a separate task pane. Save time and narrow down your Ideas by selecting only the fields you want to see. You can also provide feedback about which fields are helpful to you and which are not. This way the system learns and will present fewer, more targeted suggestions in the future. ⯆ Read the full article here: https://www.xelplus.com/ideas-in-excel Excel Office 365 Dynamic arrays: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmHVyfmcRKyyPFY31LldHWcJdLzGUPTSP ★ My Online Excel Courses ► https://www.xelplus.com/courses/ ✉ Not sure which of my Excel courses fits best for you?

26 March 2020 Drop Down Lists in Excel (Dependent, Unique Lists and other data validation lists) Join 400,000+ professionals in our courses: https://www.xelplus.com/courses/ Learn how you can create MULTIPLE dependent data validation lists in Excel on the SAME sheet. In this video I'll show you a solution that requires ONE single formula. This formula also excludes blank cells on the bottom of the data validation list. ★ My Online Excel Courses ► https://www.xelplus.com/courses/ In our example the selection of a division will drive the available choices for an app in an Excel data validation list. We'll use the Excel OFFSET function and the MATCH function for the dependent drop down selection. This way you can have as many categories as you like. ★ Get the Official XelPlus MERCH: https://xelplus.creator-spring.com/ 00:00 Multiple Dependent Drop Down Lists in Microsoft Excel 05:55 Fixed Number of Choices in the Dependent Drop-Down 07:15 Dynamic number of Choices in Drop-Down The challenge we have is that the number of choices inside the dependent drop down may vary depending on the division. I'll show you 2 solutions for this: Fixed number of Choices in the dependent drop-down If you do not mind empty spaces (blank cells) at the bottom of the drop down you can fix the height argument in the OFFSET function to a specific (maximum) number of choices. Dynamic number of Choices in Drop-Down If we want to restrict the number of visible cell values inside the dependent drop-down we can expand the formula to get rid of the blank cells on the bottom. This way we can eliminate empty spaces in the drop down selection. We will use another OFFSET formula inside a COUNTA formula to dynamically count the number of available choices. ⯆ DOWNLOAD the workbook here: https://www.xelplus.com/excel-dependent-drop-down-every-row LINK to related OFFSET video: https://youtu.be/RPTQjbk2qy4 Complete Excel Data Validation Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmHVyfmcRKywYhC1Q9eZqR7D-_cdiwl6y ✉ Not sure which of my Excel courses fits best for you?

19 March 2020 Excel Dashboards & Reports Quickly create an automatically sorted Excel bar chart that ALSO lets you hide and show categories on the chart based on a flag in the cell. It's super easy with Excel dynamic arrays - specifically with the new Excel FILTER and SORTBY functions. This is especially useful for Excel dashboards to include interactive charts depending on a selection. The solution will be fully dynamic, i.e. we will not use manual filter or manual hiding. We will even take it another step further and automatically sort the Excel chart based on the visible sales data. To get that setup we will use Excel's new Dynamic Array functions exclusively available in Office 365. To summarize what you learn: 1. How to use Excel Dynamic Array referencing in charts 2. How to use Excel FILTER & SORTBY functions 3. How to Sort categories based on their values Step 1: Data Preparation Table (01:26) Whenever the chart has a different setup than the source data, a data preparation table is needed in between. We will use the new Excel FILTER function for that. In order to get the chart properly sorted we will apply the new Excel SORTBY function. This function is used when the sorting criteria is not in the result. The tricky part is to ensure that the array for the sorting (by_array1) has the same size and order as the array for the visible sales data. We will solve this by nesting another FILTER function in the formula. To get the respective sales data we'll use a simple VLOOKUP. Step 2: Excel Chart (06:30) For the visualization we'll use a column chart that's connected to the data preparation table. However, we want the Excel chart area to update automatically based on the number of data points in the data preparation table. In other words, we want the chart to be dynamic and to include any new selections from the data preparation table and exclude any blank areas. Excel Chart references can either take direct references or they can take names. Therefore, to keep the chart dynamic we'll use names in the Name Manager and we'll use the "#" for the reference to spill. Then we'll update the Series Values and the Axis Labels of the chart with the names we created. Step 3: Dynamic Dashboard (09:38) This technique can easily be used to create dynamic dashboards. Based on a dropdown selection the chart is automatically updated. I used the Excel IF and SUMPRODUCT functions to help with that. In order to make sure that new data is added to the chart I converted the data into an official Excel table. By combining the power of Excel tables and the new Excel Dynamic Arrays such dashboards can be created really fast. 00:00 Intro 01:26 Prepare Data Table 06:30 Create Excel Chart 09:38 Setup Dynamic Excel Dashboard ⯆ DOWNLOAD the workbook here: https://www.xelplus.com/excel-da-dynamic-sorted-chart LINKS to Excel Dynamic Arrays Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmHVyfmcRKyyPFY31LldHWcJdLzGUPTSP Excel Dashboards & Reports Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmHVyfmcRKyz_4TwSfxzN_gsRtg3ODzyx ★ My Online Excel Courses ► https://www.xelplus.com/courses/ ✉ Not sure which of my Excel courses fits best for you?

12 March 2020 Excel Hacks: Tips & Tricks The first 500 people who click the link will get 2 free months of Skillshare Premium: https://skl.sh/xelplus8 You probably know the quickest way to select a column of data in Excel is with the shortcut CTRL + Shift + ⯆. But what do you do if that column includes blank cells and you'd like to highlight the entire column of data? CTRL + Shift + down arrow key will stop the moment it comes across a blank cell. Check out this video for the update: https://youtu.be/zo4l-G3Qgyk This is often a very annoying problem especially if it's a large data set or there are a lot of blank cells. In this video I'm going to show you a trick which EASILY gets this done. A shortcut which is often used is CTRL + End which jumps to the end of the data set. However, that may not always work if there is some additional input in other cells outside of the data set. Here's the Excel Keyboard Shortcut(s) to Select Column with Blank Cells: A better alternative is to use the Name Box in Excel. Just put in the range you want and use a random, very high "TO" value where you know you will not have any data anymore, e.g. B1:B10000. Press Enter. This will highlight the entire range. Then use the short cut CTRL + SHIFT + ⯅. This will highlight the data set including the blank cells. The same thing can also be done with just the keyboard, no mouse. Press CTRL + G to get to the Name Manager. In the reference field type in the range, e.g. B1:B10000 and press Enter. Then use the short cut CTRL + SHIFT + ⯅. This will highlight the data set including the blank cells.

5 March 2020 Excel Hacks: Tips & Tricks It's safe to say this Excel formula syntax has NEVER been seen before. My team and I, did an extensive search on this mysterious Excel formula syntax, but found no information about it. It's a super short formula in Excel to count cells with text and ignore blank cells, numbers and also formula cells that result in blank cells or empty strings. This is one of a kind Excel formula hack. I received this special syntax for the Excel COUNTIF function from Jack, one of our community members. It works perfectly although I have no idea why. Because it looks like we are applying a wrong Excel syntax (angry eyes). If we were to write the formula "correctly" it would only exclude the truly blank cells. But cells that include formulas which result in blank cells would still be included in the count. Alternatively, we can use the Excel COUNTIF function with the placeholders ? and *. This Excel count formula which uses wildcards, will also also just count non blank cells and ignore formulas that result in blank cells as well as ignore zeros and other numbers. In a situation when we want to count all cells that include either text or numbers we can use SUMPRODUCT in combination with the LEN function. This way we can check if the length of the content in the cells is at least 1 character. You can replace SUMPRODUCT with SUM if you have the new Dynamic Array Excel - if you have legacy Excel and use SUM instead of SUMPRODUCT you need to press Control+shift+enter. As a summary - In this Excel tutorial we take a look at different methods to Count in Excel: 1. Excel formula hack to count text cells: 2:07 2. Alternate Excel formula to count text cells (with wildcards): 2:52 3. Count all cells except the truly blank cells in Excel: 3:49 4. Count all text cells and numbers in Excel and exclude blank cells and formulas that result in blank cells: 4:30 ⯆ DOWNLOAD the workbook here: https://www.xelplus.com/excel-formula-hack-count-text Excel hacks and tricks playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmHVyfmcRKyxVeel8DFjewBSlZYdfd38A ★ My Online Excel Courses ► https://www.xelplus.com/courses/ ✉ Not sure which of my Excel courses fits best for you?

It's based on the principle that the timing of payments is important. You'll need this at work if you're a project manager, proposing a new idea to your boss that costs money. You'll also need this for evaluating different options or choices of investments. We can calculate this "time value of money" easily in Excel. In fact in this video, I'll show you an Excel template you can use to calculate the time value of money for any investment decisions. Question: If a customer asks you if instead of paying $10,000 in cash now he could pay $10,800 over 4 years. Is that a good deal for you? The answer depends on several factors: 1. Opportunity Costs - Money has an earning capacity. So, instead of waiting for the money, you could invest it and hopefully make more out of it. By getting the money later, you lose the opportunity to make an additional income. 2. Inflation - Prices increase over time. So, the same item will probably cost more in a couple of years. 3. Risk - Payments in the future always carry a certain risk. Will you really get the money then? The combination of these factors defines the time value of money and is expressed as a discount rate. For instance a discount rate of 5% means that in each successive year the same amount of money is going to be worth 5% less than in the previous year. You'll learn how to calculate Present Value (PV) manually and then we'll use the Excel NPV formula to calculate the Net Present Value in one go. Input values is the discount rate and the future cash flows. In order to compare alternatives with different timing of payments we need to calculate their present value. In other words we need to discount future payments. Companies often use their Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) which is their average cost to get equity and debt. By applying their WACC as discount rate, any project that results in a NPV greater than zero is worth doing. Key Takeaways: - The further in the future the payments are, the lower their present value will be - Think of the discount rate as a hurdle. The higher the hurdle, the more difficult it will be to get a high present value ⯆ DOWNLOAD the workbook here: https://www.xelplus.com/time-value-of-money-excel-npv Advanced Excel Formulas Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmHVyfmcRKyxvxehq3fiGjKDsEyy6d4Tz Finance & Accounting playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmHVyfmcRKywV8Bk6euT02xxtv8YVDkZs ★ My Online Excel Courses ► https://www.xelplus.com/courses/ ✉ Not sure which of my Excel courses fits best for you?

20 February 2020 Excel Infographic Chart Templates Creating an organization chart in Excel has never been easier! The best part is it's dynamic because it's linked to cells. Organizational Charts (Org Charts) or Organigrams are used in companies to graphically show the internal structure of the organization. The employees are usually represented by boxes and the chart also shows the relation of the positions to another. This is a great way to visualize an organization. Very often these Org Charts are created by using Excel Smart Art or Excel Shapes. But this is not a dynamic solution. Every time anything changes, the chart has to be manually updated. This is very time consuming and error prone. In this video I'll show you an easier and dynamic alternative using Excel and a free Visio add-in from in Office 365 (no Visio subscription is required). With this, we can create automatically create an organization chart from employee data. The org Chart will be dynamic too, because it will be linked to cell values. The basis for the organizational chart is an Excel table containing the required information like departments, employee names, employee IDs, job titles, who the position is reporting to, and so on. The organization chart is created by using the Microsoft Visio Data Visualizer add-in which is a free tool in Office 365. After selecting the chart type in the Visio Data Visualizer it creates a draft org chart and a connected Excel data template. All we have to do is to bring over the actual organizational information into this data template. Then hit Refresh in the chart area and the organization chart is automatically updated. Every time there is a change in the organization just update the data table and hit Refresh. The changes will be automatically reflected in the chart. The tool even includes a data checker that will inform you about data inconsistencies like empty or duplicate cell information. In addition to organization charts the Visio Data Visualizer can also create different diagrams like Basic Flowcharts or Cross-Functional Flowcharts. This way, process steps and the required process flow can be visualized based on Excel data. The final Organizational Chart can easily be printed or saved as PDF. In the chart area just click on More Options and select Open in Web. From there you can directly send the chart to the printer or Download as PDF. Please note that in order to edit the appearance of the diagram in the Visio Data Visualizer you need to have an Office 365 subscription with a license for Visio. The Microsoft Visio team was very kind to provide an email address to contact if you run into issues with the add-in. Send an email describing your problem to: tellvisio@microsoft.com Timestamps: 00:00 Organization Chart in Excel 01:39 Install Microsoft Visio Data Visualizer Add-in 02:25 Create Organizational Chart with Automatic Refresh 06:40 Create a Flow Chart in Excel ******************************************************************* ⯆ DOWNLOAD the workbook here: https://www.xelplus.com/excel-dynamic-organizational-chart Excel infographic chart templates: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmHVyfmcRKyw08u-MZm4ROnB3J0gRlsop Excel Advanced charts playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmHVyfmcRKyyEj7oQkCf7TL9yQQWXbGOQ ***************************************************************** ★ My Online Excel Courses ► https://www.xelplus.com/courses/ ✉ Subscribe & get my TOP 10 Excel formulas e-book for free https://www.xelplus.com/free-ebook/ EXCEL RESOURCES I Recommend: https://www.xelplus.com/resources/ Get Office 365: https://microsoft.msafflnk.net/15OEg Microsoft Surface: https://microsoft.msafflnk.net/c/1327040/451518/7593 GEAR Screen recorder: http://techsmith.pxf.io/c/1252781/347799/5161 Main Camera: https://amzn.to/3a5ldBs Backup Camera: https://amzn.to/2FLiFho Main Lens: https://amzn.to/39apgeD Zoom Lens: https://amzn.to/3bd5pN7 Audio Recorder: https://amzn.to/2Uo5rLm Microphone: https://amzn.to/2xYy9em Lights: http://amzn.to/2eJKg1U More resources on my Amazon page: https://www.amazon.com/shop/leilagharani Let’s connect on social: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lgharani Twitter: https://twitter.com/leilagharani LinkedIn: https://at.linkedin.com/in/leilagharani Note: This description contains affiliate links, which means at no additional cost to you, we will receive a small commission if you make a purchase using the links.

If you invest in real estate you need to make sure you maximize your returns! For that you need to properly calculate returns on your rental property. Learn how to analyze a rental property and how to calculate the numbers to make sure your next rental property is a cash cow! You'll learn the step by step real estate investing method for determining the monthly cash flow and cash on cash return for any rental property investment. This is a must-watch for anyone investing in real estate. Summary of what you learn: Learn how to analyze if a rental property is worth buying by calculating the Cash-On-Cash Return and the Return on Investment (ROI) of the rental property. We'll setup an Excel template, i.e, a rental property calculator which can also be adjusted for all kinds of investment decisions. Use this free Excel workbook to calculate the return on your investment so that your next investment will be a success. Focus on the numbers and make sure you plug in realistic assumptions! In this video we'll go through all the required steps to calculate the monthly rental property income by identifying all related revenue and expenses. We will also use the Excel PMT formula to quickly calculate the monthly debt service for the externally financed part of the investment. In a first step we'll calculate the Cash-On-Cash Return. This is the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of annual before-tax Cash Flow divided by the equity or own money invested in the property. This figure is useful when consistent monthly cash flows are the most important consideration for the investment. But because it's based on cash flows it considers the full debt service. So, both the interest and the principal pay down are deducted from the rental revenue. But most investors do not consider the principal payment as an expense. Because by reducing the outstanding principal balance we create equity. Therefore, we'll also calculate the Return on Investment or RoI of the property. For this we'll exclude the principal pay down from the expenses. To do that we'll use the Excel formulas CUMIPMT and CUMPRINC to split the monthly annuity. The resulting cash flow we divide again by the equity invested in the property. ************************************************************ ⯆ DOWNLOAD the Excel workbook here (scroll to the bottom of the blog post): https://www.xelplus.com/rental-property-roi-calculator-excel More finance & accounting videos: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmHVyfmcRKywV8Bk6euT02xxtv8YVDkZs Excel advanced formulas: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmHVyfmcRKyxvxehq3fiGjKDsEyy6d4Tz ************************************************************ ★ My Online Excel Courses ► https://www.xelplus.com/courses/ ✉ Subscribe & get my TOP 10 Excel formulas e-book for free https://www.xelplus.com/free-ebook/ EXCEL RESOURCES I Recommend: https://www.xelplus.com/resources/ Get Office 365: https://microsoft.msafflnk.net/15OEg Microsoft Surface: https://microsoft.msafflnk.net/c/1327040/451518/7593 GEAR Camera: https://amzn.to/2FLiFho Screen recorder: http://techsmith.pxf.io/c/1252781/347799/5161 Microphone: https://amzn.to/2DVKstA Lights: http://amzn.to/2eJKg1U More resources on my Amazon page: https://www.amazon.com/shop/leilagharani Let’s connect on social: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lgharani Twitter: https://twitter.com/leilagharani LinkedIn: https://at.linkedin.com/in/leilagharani This video is sponsored by Skillshare.

30 January 2020 Excel Advanced Formulas & Features Stubborn spaces can become a headache in Excel. You'll come across extra spaces when you copy data from your email or import data from another system. Each cell value ends up having trailing or leading spaces. Sometimes they can be removed easily with the TRIM function but sometimes TRIM doesn't work! In this video I'll show you how you can TRIM ALL Spaces - also the stubborn ones. TRIM can only remove spaces with an ASCII character code 32. But there is another character code that represents a space. It's commonly referred to as a Non-Breaking Space and its ASCII character code is 160. Such spaces commonly occur when we copy text from Outlook or a website to Excel. With the Excel function CODE() we can identify which character code we are dealing with. To remove a non-breaking space in Excel we can use the SUBSTITUTE function. With this function we can look for character code 160 in a cell and replace it with a regular space. For numbers that are not recognized as numbers by Excel we can use the VALUE function. If the number contains non-breaking spaces use it in combination with the SUBSTITUTE function. 00:00 What To Do When VLOOKUP Does NOT Work 01:01 What to Do When TRIM Does Not Remove Spaces 03:36 Use SUBSTITUTE to Remove Spaces Between Words 04:49 What To Do When Excel Does Not Recognize Numbers 07:20 Wrap Up ⯆ DOWNLOAD the workbook here: https://www.xelplus.com/excel-trim-all-spaces Check out other Excel tips and tricks in this playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmHVyfmcRKyxVeel8DFjewBSlZYdfd38A ★ My Online Excel Courses ► https://www.xelplus.com/courses/ ✉ Subscribe & get my TOP 10 Excel formulas e-book for free https://www.xelplus.com/free-ebook/ EXCEL RESOURCES I Recommend: https://www.xelplus.com/resources/ Get Office 365: https://microsoft.msafflnk.net/15OEg Microsoft Surface: https://microsoft.msafflnk.net/c/1327040/451518/7593 GEAR Screen recorder: http://techsmith.pxf.io/c/1252781/347799/5161 Main Camera: https://amzn.to/3a5ldBs Backup Camera: https://amzn.to/2FLiFho Main Lens: https://amzn.to/39apgeD Zoom Lens: https://amzn.to/3bd5pN7 Audio Recorder: https://amzn.to/2Uo5rLm Microphone: https://amzn.to/2xYy9em Lights: http://amzn.to/2eJKg1U More resources on my Amazon page: https://www.amazon.com/shop/leilagharani Let’s connect on social: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lgharani Twitter: https://twitter.com/leilagharani LinkedIn: https://at.linkedin.com/in/leilagharani Note: This description contains affiliate links, which means at no additional cost to you, we will receive a small commission if you make a purchase using the links.

28 January 2020 Unleash your inner Financial Pro RESOURCES I Recommend: https://www.xelplus.com/resources/ The Cash Flow Statement is one of the 3 main Financial Statements. It will show you how effective a business is in managing its cash. Most companies apply Accrual Accounting and it's important to understand that under this method revenue does not always equal cash in, and incurred expenses do not equal cash out. Therefore, don't make the mistake to just look at the income statement and the balance sheet. Focus on the Cash Flow Statement as well because it will show you where the company makes and spends its money. The Cash Flow Statement consists of 3 main parts: Cash Flow from Operations Here we can find out how much cash a business is able to generate by selling its products and services. To calculate the Cash Flow from Operations there are 2 methods in use. In this video we will focus on the indirect method because it's used by most companies. It's linked to the income statement and starts with the Net Income. But in Accrual Accounting revenue does not equal cash in, and expenses do not equal cash out. Therefore, the net income from the Income statement must be adjusted to see the actual cash flows. The most common adjustments are for non-cash transactions (depreciation, amortization, gains/losses for sales of non-current assets), and for working capital. Cash Flow from Investing Activities This shows the cash spent on investments or cash received from sales of investments. Here we can see the full cash inflow or outflow when a company purchases or sells property, equipment or other investments. We can also find out if the business acquired a company to expand its activities. Cash Flow from Financing Activities This section summarizes cash transactions that involve raising, borrowing, and repaying capital. When a company gets a bank loan or issues new shares it will receive additional cash. Therefore, this cash inflow will be reported with a positive figure. On the other hand, if the company repays the principal portion of a loan, pays dividends to its owners, or purchases its own shares it spends cash and reduces the cash balance. Therefore, this cash outflow will be reported with a negative figure. At the very bottom of the Cash Flow Statement you will find the reconciliation to the cash balance in the Balance Sheet. The cash ending balance from the last period, plus the Cash Flows from Operations, Investing and Financing Activities must equal the cash ending balance for the current period. Sometimes, you will find an additional position for effects from foreign exchange rates caused by differences in average and spot rates. 00:00 How to Read a Cash Flow Statement 02:00 Cash Flow Statement - Overview 03:57 Cash Flow from Operating Activities 10:33 Cash Flow from Investing Activities 11:17 Cash Flow from Financing Activities Check out the full article here: https://www.xelplus.com/cash-flow-statement-explained In the next video of our accounting basics series, we'll see how to calculate the return for an investment. ★ My Online Excel Courses ► https://www.xelplus.com/courses/ ✉ Subscribe & get my TOP 10 Excel formulas e-book for free https://www.xelplus.com/free-ebook/ RESOURCES I Recommend: https://www.xelplus.com/resources/ Get Office 365: https://microsoft.msafflnk.net/15OEg Microsoft Surface: https://microsoft.msafflnk.net/c/1327040/451518/7593 More resources on my Amazon page: https://www.amazon.com/shop/leilagharani Let’s connect on social: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lgharani Twitter: https://twitter.com/leilagharani LinkedIn: https://at.linkedin.com/in/leilagharani Note: This description contains affiliate links, which means at no additional cost to you, we will receive a small commission if you make a purchase using the links.

23 January 2020 Excel Hacks: Tips & Tricks Excel 3D formulas can be used to consolidate data from multiple worksheets into a summary sheet. 3D formulas aren't that well known except to advanced Excel users. If you ever needed to reference the same cell or the same range on multiple Excel worksheets you'll know this can be quite a tedious process. Plus the reference is not dynamic. So, if another Excel sheet gets added in the middle, the formula will not update. It doesn't have to be this way! In this video I'll show you an alternative approach to gather data from multiple Excel sheets to one sheet. With Excel 3-d reference formulas you can replace this cumbersome process with a short and flexible formula. In addition, I'll show you a bonus Excel trick I received from Bob Umlas. With this hack we can even add cells or ranges on worksheets that aren't beside one another. This works as long as the sheets have a common name. It's like using wildcards in the 3d reference. 00:47 Excel 3D Formula explained 06:21 Bob's Bonus Trick for using 3d formulas in Excel ⯆ DOWNLOAD the workbook here: https://www.xelplus.com/excel-3d-formulas Excel Tips & tricks playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmHVyfmcRKyxVeel8DFjewBSlZYdfd38A ★ My Online Excel Courses ► https://www.xelplus.com/courses/ ✉ Subscribe & get my TOP 10 Excel formulas e-book for free https://www.xelplus.com/free-ebook/ EXCEL RESOURCES I Recommend: https://www.xelplus.com/resources/ Get Office 365: https://microsoft.msafflnk.net/15OEg Microsoft Surface: https://microsoft.msafflnk.net/c/1327040/451518/7593 GEAR Screen recorder: http://techsmith.pxf.io/c/1252781/347799/5161 Main Camera: https://amzn.to/3a5ldBs Backup Camera: https://amzn.to/2FLiFho Main Lens: https://amzn.to/39apgeD Zoom Lens: https://amzn.to/3bd5pN7 Audio Recorder: https://amzn.to/2Uo5rLm Microphone: https://amzn.to/2xYy9em Lights: http://amzn.to/2eJKg1U More resources on my Amazon page: https://www.amazon.com/shop/leilagharani Let’s connect on social: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lgharani Twitter: https://twitter.com/leilagharani LinkedIn: https://at.linkedin.com/in/leilagharani Note: This description contains affiliate links, which means at no additional cost to you, we will receive a small commission if you make a purchase using the links.

21 January 2020 Unleash your inner Financial Pro Get Access to My Course "Fundamentals of Financial Analysis" HERE: https://www.xelplus.com/course/learn-financial-analysis/ There are 2 different accounting methods: Cash Accounting and Accrual Accounting. In this video I will show you the difference between accrual basis versus cash basis of accounting by telling you a story. You will get a quick overview how each of these methods impacts the timing of recording a company's transactions. In Cash Accounting companies record transactions only when cash is exchanged. This means that revenue is recorded only when cash is received. And expenses are recorded only when cash is paid. Therefore, this method is intuitive and simple to understand. It helps you keep track of your cash balance, easy to apply, and an accepted accounting method also for tax purposes. Cash accounting method can be your accounting method of choice especially if your business is small and simple, and mainly cash based. On the other hand, cash accounting may not provide a full picture of the business at a certain point in time. In Accrual Accounting companies record transactions when they happen rather than when cash changes hands. Revenue is recorded when earned, meaning when a sale is made and the products or services are delivered to the customer. Even if the customer hasn't paid yet. Expenses are recorded when incurred regardless even if they've not been paid to the supplier yet. Accrual Accounting provides a much better picture of what is happening in a business. If the company reports under GAAP or IFRS then Accrual Accounting is the accepted method. However, it does not focus on cash flows which is why reported income under this method does not equal cash-in. 00:56 What is Cash Accounting 02:38 Accrual Accounting Explained 03:27 Cash and Accrual Accounting explained with a Story 09:13 Advantages and Disadvantages for both methods Check out the full article here: https://www.xelplus.com/cash-vs-accrual-accounting In the next video of our accounting basics series, we'll take a look at the Cash Flow Statement. ★ My Online Excel Courses ► https://www.xelplus.com/courses/ ✉ Subscribe & get my TOP 10 Excel formulas e-book for free https://www.xelplus.com/free-ebook/ EXCEL RESOURCES I Recommend: https://www.xelplus.com/resources/ Get Office 365: https://microsoft.msafflnk.net/15OEg Microsoft Surface: https://microsoft.msafflnk.net/c/1327040/451518/7593 GEAR Camera: https://amzn.to/2FLiFho Screen recorder: http://techsmith.pxf.io/c/1252781/347799/5161 Microphone: https://amzn.to/2DVKstA Lights: http://amzn.to/2eJKg1U More resources on my Amazon page: https://www.amazon.com/shop/leilagharani Let’s connect on social: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lgharani Twitter: https://twitter.com/leilagharani LinkedIn: https://at.linkedin.com/in/leilagharani Note: This description contains affiliate links, which means at no additional cost to you, we will receive a small commission if you make a purchase using the links.

16 Jan 2020 Excel Lookup Formulas Join 400,000+ professionals in our courses: https://www.xelplus.com/courses/ Excel DGET Function is one of Excel's "forgotten" database functions that can do a Left lookup (unlike VLOOKUP) and ALSO easily look for multiple criteria. ★ My Online Excel Courses ► https://www.xelplus.com/courses/ One limitation of DGET is that you can't apply it to multiple cells. Basically you can't pull down the formula to lookup different values. If that's something you need, then you'll need to use INDEX MATCH, VLOOKUP, Excel FILTER function or FILTER feature or XLOOKUP.

9 Jan 2020 Excel for Office 365 & Dynamic Arrays Check out the complete Excel Course covering the brand new functions: https://courses.xelplus.com/p/excel-dynamic-array-formulas You'd like to do a VLOOKUP but return ALL match results instead of just the first match? You can use Excel's new FILTER function. What if you'd like to lookup multiple criteria and return ALL match results? You can use the new Excel Dynamic Array FILTER Formula! It's like the dynamic or automatic version of Excel's advanced Filter feature. You can return Filtered results based on AND as well as OR conditions. The Excel Filter function filters your data based on criteria, and returns all the matching records. This can be one or more records. If more than one match is found, the results will "spill" vertically. If there is a blockage (i.e. your results are spilling into already filled cells) then you will get the #SPILL error. You can easily get rid of this error by removing the cells that are blocking the FILTER formula. If FILTER doesn't find any matching records it will return a #CALC error. You can suppress this error with the text or value of your choice by adding this to the last argument of the FILTER formula. * Availability of Excel FILTER function: This feature is available on Excel for Office 365 - also for Excel on the Web and Mobile. 00:00 How to use Excel's FILTER Function 00:45 Advantages of Excel FILTER Function 01:46 Excel FILTER Function Explained 03:15 Excel FILTER #CALC Error 05:40 #SPILL Error and How to Overcome It 06:13 FILTER Function with Table References 07:14 FILTER Formula with Multiple Lookup Criteria ⯆ DOWNLOAD the workbook here: https://www.xelplus.com/excel-filter-function Return Multiple Match Results (Excel Legacy Method): https://youtu.be/fDB1Ktyhp3Y More about Excel Dynamic Arrays: https://youtu.be/2USJsIyIzvo Excel Dynamic Arrays Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmHVyfmcRKyyPFY31LldHWcJdLzGUPTSP ★ My Online Excel Courses ► https://www.xelplus.com/courses/ ✉ Take this Quiz to choose the right Excel course: https://www.xelplus.com/course-quiz/ EXCEL RESOURCES I Recommend: https://www.xelplus.com/resources/ Get Office 365: https://microsoft.msafflnk.net/15OEg Microsoft Surface: https://microsoft.msafflnk.net/c/1327040/451518/7593 GEAR Camera: https://amzn.to/2FLiFho Screen recorder: http://techsmith.pxf.io/c/1252781/347799/5161 Microphone: https://amzn.to/2DVKstA Lights: http://amzn.to/2eJKg1U More resources on my Amazon page: https://www.amazon.com/shop/leilagharani Let’s connect on social: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lgharani Twitter: https://twitter.com/leilagharani LinkedIn: https://at.linkedin.com/in/leilagharani Note: This description contains affiliate links, which means at no additional cost to you, we will receive a small commission if you make a purchase using the links.

12 Dec 2019 Excel Power Query (Get & Transform) Join 400,000+ professionals in our courses: https://www.xelplus.com/courses/ You'd like to bring data from a web page into Excel? Instead of copying and pasting, use "Get and Transform" (Power Query) from the "Data" tab. This way you can import website data properly into Excel. Once you create a web query you can automatically get the latest data in Excel. You just have to refresh your query and update the query settings so it runs a refresh at specific intervals defined by you. Getting data from a web page has never been easier. Just Open Excel, go to the "Data" tab and click on "From Web". Enter the web address of the external page you'd like to import. Power Query opens and tries to find the html tables on that web page. Select the correct table and transform your data. This step gives you the ability to customize your output. You can for example, fill in the blanks by automatically copying down the top values. You can remove the columns you don't need and clean up the data. Once done, you can view the data in an Excel table, as an Excel Pivot Table or create a connection to the query. Note: Importing web data with Power Query this way requires the tables on the web pages to be in HTML format - otherwise they're not recognized in the Navigator view. 00:00 How to Import Data from Websites to Excel 01:15 Importing Crude Oil Spot Prices to Excel 04:59 Getting the Latest Weather Data into Excel 07:25 Bonus - Using Emojis in Power Query ______ Check out _______ Frédéric Le Guen's blog post on adding emojis to your reports: https://www.excel-exercise.com/add-emojis-to-your-charts-formulas/ Oz's video - Emojis, Excel, Power Query & Dynamic Arrays: https://youtu.be/c-tnA1zfrzs ⯆ DOWNLOAD the workbook (scroll to the bottom of the blog post): https://www.xelplus.com/import-data-from-web-to-excel/ Check out the Power Query Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmHVyfmcRKyyKV86N7i0q9TfYNN8bBjX- ★ My Online Excel Courses ► https://www.xelplus.com/courses/ ✉ Subscribe & get my TOP 10 Excel formulas e-book for free https://www.xelplus.com/free-ebook/ RESOURCES I Recommend: https://www.xelplus.com/resources/ Get Office 365: https://microsoft.msafflnk.net/15OEg Microsoft Surface: https://microsoft.msafflnk.net/c/1327040/451518/7593 More resources on my Amazon page: https://www.amazon.com/shop/leilagharani Let’s connect on social: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lgharani Twitter: https://twitter.com/leilagharani LinkedIn: https://at.linkedin.com/in/leilagharani Note: This description contains affiliate links, which means at no additional cost to you, we will receive a small commission if you make a purchase using the links.

3 December 2019 Unleash your inner Financial Pro‍‍‍‍ ‍ ‍Get Access to My Course "Fundamentals of Financial Analysis" HERE: https://www.xelplus.com/course/learn-financial-analysis/ Use our secret weapon ADEx LER (Accountants Don't Expect Low Earning Rates) to apply Debits and Credits to actual transactions of a business. We will learn how double-entry bookkeeping takes everyday activities and turns them into data that can be processed. First, we will visualize transactions with T-Accounts (3:57), later with journal entries (8:38). Finally, we will create the resulting income statement and balance sheet to see how the accounts flow into these statements. This video will answer common questions like: - How do your write and record debits and credits? 1:22 - What is a credit with example? 2:09 - How is a journal entry recorded? 8:40 - What are COGS? 10:50 - Is expense a debit or a credit? 11:00 Overview: Debits and Credits are a fundamental part in accounting. To memorize the rules easily just remember: Accountants Don't Expect Low Earning Rates. The process of recording transactions with debits and credits is referred to as double-entry bookkeeping, because there are ALWAYS at least two accounts involved. We will follow Claudio's beach business for one day and record the transactions that happened during this day. We will start out with Claudio investing his own, private money into the business. Then, record the transaction for buying inventory and finally, the sales of the merchandise to tourists. Last step is to create the resulting income statement and balance sheet based on these transactions.

28 November 2019 Excel for Office 365 & Dynamic Arrays‍‍‍‍ ‍ Join 400,000+ professionals in our courses: https://www.xelplus.com/courses/ Excel XLOOKUP will soon become the ONLY Excel LOOKUP Function you’ll ever need to solve any lookup problem you come across. If you'd like to learn about the other brand new Excel functions like FILTER & UNIQUE check out the complete course: https://courses.xelplus.com/p/excel-dynamic-array-formulas In this video we cover 5 common Excel lookup problems: 1. Lookup returns an error (#NA) - This is a common problem with VLOOKUP. If the VLOOKUP function returns #NA it is likely because the item you're looking up does not exist on the lookup table. The solution so far has been to wrap the VLOOKUP function inside IFNA or IFERROR functions. With XLOOKUP however, you no longer need to do that. You just need to use the 4th argument of XLOOKUP [If_not_found] optional argument and specify the value you'd like to get back if the value does not exist on the lookup array. 2. Horizontal lookup - In legacy Excel when we needed to lookup a value in a table that was structured horizontally instead of vertically we would use the HLOOKUP function. The new XLOOkUP function can do horizontal lookups as well. You just have to select the horizontal array instead of the vertical array. 3. Look for a partial match instead of an exact match in Excel: There might be times you need to look for a partial match. In this case you can combine wildcards such as the asterisk or question mark characters and combine them together with the 5th argument of XLOOKUP which is the optional [match mode] argument. 4. Two way Excel lookup: To look up a value on the rows as well as columns we generally combined VLOOKUP with Excel Match function or used the famous INDEX & MATCH functions. We no longer need to use two separate functions to do a two way lookup. We can use XLOOKUP inside another XLOOKUP to get the job done. The advantage is we just need to know one function well, instead of combining different Excel lookup functions with one another. 5. Excel approximate match lookup: There are times you'd like to look for a value inside a data table and return the closest match. This is specially used for cases where you have thresholds for example for bonus schemes. If a number falls between a specific threshold you'd like to return a corresponding value. This is where you can use XLOOKUP's 5th argument [match mode] to look for "exact match or next smaller item" or "exact match or next larger item". 00:00 What is Excel's New XLOOKUP Function 01:15 Lookup Value Not Found with XLOOKUP 04:06 Horizontal Lookup with XLOOKUP in Excel 05:44 Look For Partial Match with XLOOKUP 07:51 Two-Way Lookup with XLOOKUP 10:29 Approximate Match with XLOOKUP *** AVAILABILITY *** The XLOOKUP function is available to Office 365 and 2021 users. ⯆ DOWNLOAD the workbook here: https://www.xelplus.com/excel-xlookup-5-examples LINKS to related videos - First XLOOKUP video: https://rumble.com/v2uqp14 Excel left lookup with XLOOKUP: https://rumble.com/v2us6fy ★ My Online Excel Courses ► https://www.xelplus.com/courses/ ✉ Subscribe & get my TOP 10 Excel formulas e-book for free https://www.xelplus.com/free-ebook/ RESOURCES I Recommend: https://www.xelplus.com/resources/ Get Office 365: https://microsoft.msafflnk.net/15OEg Microsoft Surface: https://microsoft.msafflnk.net/c/1327040/451518/7593 GEAR Screen recorder: http://techsmith.pxf.io/c/1252781/347799/5161 Main Camera: https://amzn.to/3a5ldBs Backup Camera: https://amzn.to/2FLiFho Main Lens: https://amzn.to/39apgeD Zoom Lens: https://amzn.to/3bd5pN7 Audio Recorder: https://amzn.to/2Uo5rLm Microphone: https://amzn.to/2xYy9em Lights: http://amzn.to/2eJKg1U More resources on my Amazon page: https://www.amazon.com/shop/leilagharani Let’s connect on social: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lgharani Twitter: https://twitter.com/leilagharani LinkedIn: https://at.linkedin.com/in/leilagharani Note: This description contains affiliate links, which means at no additional cost to you, we will receive a small commission if you make a purchase using the links.
