 Lesson 5: Advance Spreadsheet Skills
At the end of this lesson, the students should be able to:
1. familiarize with the most commonly used functions in Microsoft
Excel;
2. use several conditional functions available in Microsoft Excel; and
3. use Microsoft Excel as a viable tool in market research and
product development.
 What is a spreadsheet?

A spreadsheet is a computer program that can

capture, display and manipulate data
arranged in rows and columns. Spreadsheets
are one of the most popular tools available
with personal computers.
 What is a spreadsheet?

A spreadsheet is generally designed to hold

numerical data and short text strings. In a
spreadsheet program, spaces that hold items of data
are called spreadsheet cells. These can be renamed
to better reflect the data they hold and can be cross-
referenced through row numbers and column letters.
 What is a spreadsheet?

• A single spreadsheet can be used as a

worksheet to compile data for a purpose, or
multiple sheets can be combined to create
an entire workbook.
 What is a spreadsheet?

• Each column or row cell references a value

and is labeled according to its placement (for
example: A1, A2, A3). Data can be exported
as a CSV file and imported into other
software or vice versa.
 Examples of Spreadsheet Softwares

• Google Sheets
Google Sheets is an online spreadsheet app
that lets you create and format spreadsheets
and work with other people.
 Examples of Spreadsheet Softwares
LibreOffice Calc 
• is the spreadsheet component of the LibreOffice software
package. After forking from OpenOffice.org in 2010,
LibreOffice Calc underwent a massive re-work of external
reference handling to fix many defects in formula calculations
involving external references, and to boost data caching
 performance, especially when referencing large data ranges.
 Examples of Spreadsheet Softwares
Microsoft Excel

• Microsoft Excel is a software program produced

by Microsoft that allows users to organize,
format and calculate data with formulas using a
spreadsheet system.
 Examples of Spreadsheet Softwares
Microsoft Excel

• This software is part of the Microsoft Office suite and is

compatible with other applications in the Office suite.
Like other Microsoft Office products, Microsoft Excel can
now be purchased through the cloud on a subscription
basis through Office 365.
 What is Microsoft Excel?

• Microsoft Excel provides an automated way of

displaying any statistical data. It can be used to
automatically compute for several factors that are
not easy to notice especially when faced by a large
data. Microsoft Excel includes several arithmetic
and basic functions that help you compute faster.
 Basic Excel Formulas:
• Addition (+)
• Subtraction (-)
• Multiplication (*)
• Division (/)
• *type <=>
• before the formula, thus: =a1+a2
 Basic Excel Formulas:

• Average – a function used to compute for

the average of the number of a range.
• COUNTIF – a function used to count the
cells with a specified content within a range.
 Basic Excel Formulas:

• SUMIF – a function used to compute for the

summation of a range if a certain condition is met
• AVERAGEIF – a function used to compute for the
average of a range if a certain condition is met
 Activity:
Eric wanted to compute the average of his grade in MS Excel and he typed
his grades in the cells a1,b1,c1 and d1. namely 97, 94, 90, 99 respectively.
1. What is the proper formula inorder to get the answer?
2. What is his average?
