How to build Excel formulas

  1. Pick a calculation recipe

    Browse 24 reviewed recipes across business, finance, analysis, lookups, dates, and education, or search for the calculation you need.

  2. Configure your parameters

    Enter the values, thresholds, dates, or lookup choices requested by the recipe. The input and output map shows what you configure and what the workbook calculates.

  3. Review and test live preview

    Check the formula, its target cell, assumptions, sample result, and Excel compatibility. When a workbook has more than 12 rows, the preview clearly labels the visible subset.

  4. Copy formula or download workbook

    Match the shown column layout before pasting a copied formula, or download the XLSX workbook with the selected number of sample rows and formulas already placed.

Formula categories & common use cases

Financial analysis & business metrics

Model gross margin, compound growth, CAGR, loan payments and schedules, break-even units, inventory levels, and configurable tier rules.

Lookups & data matching

Find values with scalar INDEX and MATCH, look across rows and columns, or return a uniquely matched amount with two criteria.

Conditional aggregation & logic

Build running and weighted calculations, flag duplicates, rank scores, total matching categories, and apply progressive tiers.

Dates & education

Count Monday-to-Friday working days, calculate completed age or tenure, and create a configurable student grade recap.

Tips for reliable spreadsheets

Check version compatibility

Choose the oldest Excel version that needs to open the file. Every current recipe is checked against all three listed profiles.

Preserve the expected layout

Copied formulas use the columns and target cell shown in Preview. Recreate that layout or adjust the cell references before filling the formula down.

Read each recipe's assumptions

Business methods such as safety stock, tiered commission, and break-even analysis depend on the stated model and may need adapting to your own policy.

Review the complete download

The page previews at most 12 rows. Open the downloaded workbook to review every selected row and test your own edge cases before relying on it.

Private and secure spreadsheet calculation

Formula checks and workbook creation happen directly on your device. The values you enter and the workbook being created stay in your browser during processing.

Larger row counts can take longer on slower phones or computers. Work is handled locally, and the finished file stays available until you reset the recipe or leave the page.
