Copyright © 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved Exploring Microsoft Office Excel 2007 Chapter 8 What-if Analysis Robert Grauer, Keith Mulbery, Judy Scheeren

Copyright © 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 2 Objectives Create a one-variable data table Create a two-variable data table Solve problems with Goal Seek Use Scenario Manager Load the Solver Add-In Solve Problems with Solver

Copyright © 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 3 Create a one-variable data table What-if analysis enables you to see how changes in variables affect calculated results A variable is a value that can be changed to see how those changes impact other values An independent variable is one that can be controlled directly, such as the price of an item A dependent variable is one that may vary such as the number of items sold

Copyright © 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 4 Create a One-Variable Data Table A one-variable data table is a data-analysis tool that provides various results based on changing one variable Allows you to analyze different values of one variable to compare one or more calculated results that are affected by the variable Two important elements:  Input cells contain values to be modified for what-if analysis  Result cells contain values to be modified

Copyright © 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 5 Create a One-Variable Data Table

Copyright © 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 6 Create a One-Variable Data Table To perform the analysis:  Select the entire table excluding the descriptive labels  Click the What-If Analysis down arrow in the Data Tools group on the Data tab and select Data Table  Type the address of the cell to be changed in the Data Table dialog box  Click OK

Copyright © 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 7 Create a Two-Variable Data Table Use to determine the affect of two variables on a single formula result Summarizes important input and output cell values in multiple what-if analyses in one rectangular cell range Specify two input variables that Excel changes to produce the data table First variable must be in the left column of the table, and the second variable must be in the top row of the data table

Copyright © 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 8 Create a Two-Variable Data Table

Copyright © 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 9 Create a Two-Variable Data Table Steps to create a two-variable data table:  Create the data table with appropriate headings, indicating the different values of the two variables  Create a formula in the top-left corner at the intersection of the column and row headings The formula should reference the cell containing the original result formula  Select the entire data table, including the column and row headings that contain the different values for the two variables

Copyright © 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 10 Create a Two-Variable Data Table  Click the What-If Analysis down arrow in the Data Tools group on the Data tab and select Data Table  Type the cell that contains the original value for the horizontal variable in the Row input cell box, and type the cell that contains the original value for the vertical variable in the Column input cell box  Click OK

Copyright © 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 11 Solve Problems with Goal Seek Goal Seek is a method for finding one-time solutions to problems It enables you to work backwards to solve a problem It enables you to set the end result to determine the input to produce the result The primary advantage is the dialog box that enables you to change your goals and parameters relatively easily

Copyright © 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 13 Use Scenario Manager Scenario Manager enables you to specify multiple sets of assumptions, called scenarios, to quickly see the results of any given Scenario Represents different sets of what-if conditions to be considered in assessing the outcome of spreadsheet models

Copyright © 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 14 Use Scenario Manager

Copyright © 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 15 Use Scenario Manager You can create multiple scenarios using the Add Scenario dialog box To view your scenarios, click What-If analysis in the Data Tools group on the Data tab, select Scenario Manager, and highlight the name of the Scenario you want to view in the Scenarios list and click Show A scenario summary report is a condensed version of the scenario results

Copyright © 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 16 Use Scenario Manager

Copyright © 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 17 Use Scenario Manager If you have defined many scenarios with multiple result cells, a Scenario PivotTable report may give you more flexibility in your analysis of outcomes based on your scenarios

Copyright © 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 18 Use Scenario Manager

Copyright © 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 19 Load the Solver Add-in Solver is a separate program that must be installed or added in to Excel Once added, it appears in the Analysis group on the Data tab as shown in Figure To install:  Click the Office Button  Click Excel Options  Click Add-Ins, select Excel Add-ins from the Manage list and click GO  Click Solve Add-in in the Add-Ins available list and click OK

Copyright © 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 20 Solving Problems with Solver Solver : an add-in program that searches for the best solution to a problem with several variables Used to find the best way to allocate resources Requires three parameters :  target cell typically contains a formula that is directly or indirectly based on the adjustable cells and constraints  adjustable cells are the cells whose values are adjusted until the constraints are satisfied  constraints specify the restrictions

Copyright © 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 21 Solve Problems with Solver Define the problem Using identified input ranges, output cells, and constraints, Solver can minimize or maximize the input cell or set the output cell to a particular value Define the parameters using the Solver dialog box

All rights reserved. 23 Solve Problems with Solver Stepping through Solver enables you to view the steps Solver performs Saving a Solver model places the information in a small block of cells on a worksheet  Keeps track of your predefined settings If you want to use an existing Solver model with new or updated data you would return to a previous Solver Model by restoring that model
