PMT FUNCTION PMT function: you can calculate the monthly loan payment using this formula. PMT(rate, nper, pv) –Rate: per month (usually). –Nper: number of months (usually). –Pv: Amount borrowed. 6

DATE FUNCTIONS “=TODAY()”: This function will tell you today’s date. “=NOW()”: This function will tell you today’s date and time. 7

FREEZE CELLS IN EXCEL Why do we need freezing cells(rows, column, panes). Really useful while scrolling through lot of data (when tables/data spans across width/length of your monitor). 8

FREEZE CELLS IN EXCEL Freeze row. (top visible row on your screen is frozen). Directions: –Make sure you have the required row as the top row on the screen (adjust by scrolling). –Go to View tab -> Freeze panes->top Row. 9

FREEZE CELLS IN EXCEL Freeze column. (left most visible column on your screen is frozen). Directions: –Make sure you have the required column as the top row on the screen (adjust by scrolling). –Go to View tab -> Freeze panes->top Column. 10

PIVOT CHARTS/TABLES Pivot tables and Pivot charts let you quickly insert tables and chart into the given data. You can quickly add or remove data points to see the changes/effect of those data points on the chart. Data on axes/categories represent X axis in the chart. Data on “values” represent the Y axis in the chart. 12

PIVOT CHARTS/TABLES To insert Pivot Tables and Pivot Charts: –select the data (range of the data using your mouse). –Go to Insert tab -> Pivot Chart>Pivot Chart and Pivot Table. 13

3D FORMULAS Simple formulas are usually referred within the current sheet. Simple Formulas that span across worksheets. For a given formula, try to select cells across worksheets. 14
