How to Use Excel Functions & Formulas to Analyze Inventory for a Retail Store

Monday, April 23rd, 2012

Continuing in my series of Excel Tutorials for analyzing the year-end inventory of I retail store, I demonstrate how to use Excel Functions and Formulas.

In this case, using just three “hard coded” numbers (Sales, Cost of Goods Sold and Average Inventory), we create six formulas: Gross Profit $, Gross Profit %, Inventory “turns” per period, Products as a % of Sales, Inventory (by product) as a % of total inventory, GMROI (Gross Margin Return on Investment)

As a bonus, I demonstrate several ways to quickly – and accurately enter your Excel formulas.

How to Create Named Ranges to Use in Excel Formulas

Saturday, March 3rd, 2012

In my opinion, there are three main reasons to use Named Ranges in Excel Formulas:
1) They are easier to write – especially when range of cells is large
2) They are easier to remember – e.g. Gross Profit = Sales minus Costs
3) They are easier to explain to others – see example for point #2

In this lesson, I demonstrate two ways to create a Named Range. The first is to use the “Name Box” in all versions of Excel. The second is to Create a Named Range from Selection.

In my next lesson, I will show you how to modify named ranges and also how to apply named ranges to existing formulas.
