An electronic spread sheet application program is designed to perform

basic mathematical and arithmetic operations.

MS EXCEL is one example of commonly used

computerized worksheets. It is widely used in:
1. accounting and financial applications
2. statistics
3. engineering calculations
4. analyzing data.

7|Page
 Spreadsheet such as Excel is like a filing system and a calculator. It is
made up of grids where you can enter data and text. You can use
spreadsheets in organizing data into column, easy calculations and edits data
which record new data automatically and in making graphs to analyze
information.

8|Page
 Functions are the calculations that return a result. To create and enter
functions, always start with an equal sign (=). Without it, Excel will not
calculate a result.

9|Page
 Arguments are the inputs in functions. Arguments can be in a form of
numbers, cell references, or text.

HOW TO OPEN MS EXCEL

(With Guidance of a Senior Family Member)

1. Click on the Start Button.

11. In the Search Program and 3. Under Microsoft Office 2013

Click on
Files box type Excel. Excel 2013 from the Program results.

4. The Microsoft Excel 2013 program will open

11 | P a g e
 5. From the Excel Start Screen, locate and select Blank workbook to access the Excel
interface

6. Click Open Other Workbooks to work on an existing workbook.

12 | P a g e
 There are hundreds of functions found in Excel. All these can be accessed using
either of the following methods: (You can follow the procedures with Adult supervisions)

1. Click the Insert Function button-fx from the left side of formulas tab.

2. Select a function from one of the lists in the Insert Function dialog box. Then click OK.

13 | P a g e
 3. A Function Arguments dialog box will appear that will automatically assist you to
input numbers in your selected function. This window indicates what each function
does and the arguments that each function consider.

14 | P a g e
 4. Directly input numbers into the cells. Useful prompts showing the format of the
function and the arguments that should be inserted will appear. You may also use
the mouse to click desired ranges that you want to include in the function. Then the
cells address will automatically be inserted in your functions. Once the numbers are
typed in the dialog box, click OK.

 WHAT IS IT

MS EXCEL CHART

A chart is a visual representation of data in worksheet of the spread

sheet program. It makes it easy to study and interpret data.

SYMBOL OPERATION EXAMPLE PURPOSE

+ Addition = A1+B2 It adds the value
of cells A1 and
B2.
- Subtraction = A1-B2 It subtracts the
value of cells A1
and B2.
* Multiplication = A1*B2 It multiplies the
value of cells A1
and B2.
/ Division = A1/B2 It divides the
value of cells A1
and B2.

There are different categories of functions. Some of which are the following:

Mathematical

These include mathematical

function such as AVERAGE (),
SUM (), etc.

17 | P a g e
Date and Time

These are concerned

with the date and time
such as DATEVALUE ()
that converts dates
written in text to
numbers

Logical Functions

These are used whether

arguments, texts, or values are
true or not depending on the set
standard

Look up and References

These are functions used

when looking for an entry or
value in the spread sheet.

18 | P a g e
Below are some examples of the commonly used functions:

SUM This used to add two or more numbers together. Cell

references are used in this formula. Separate numbers or cell
references by commas then it automatically are added.
Example: = SUM (9,14) or = SUM ( A1,B3) or = SUM
(A@:C9)
For range of cells, separate them with colon.
Example: = SUM (A2:C9)
AVERAGE This is used to calculate average of a series of numbers.
Example: = AVERAGE(A1:A10)
COUNT This is used to count the number of cells in a range that have
numbers in them. For instance, if there are five cells that
contain numbers in A1 to A15, then the result is 5.
Example: =COUNT (A1:A15). This is also used to count the
number of cells that have numbers and/or any other
characters in them. It works with all the data types.
LEN This is used to return the length or a string or an entry.
Example: = LEN (entrepreneurship) is 16.

Formulas are combinations of functions, operands and operators. These are

used when you manually calculating. For example, you could put your
hanging organizer budget into a formula like this:

Remaining cash = total cost of materials – labor

Input the formula in Excel:

= 82-30 then presses Enter. The answer is 52 which are the remaining cash
for your hanging organizer project.

 WHAT’S MORE

(Creativity, Critical Thinking)

A. Create an Excel file for the expenses below.
For this activity, you will need to review the activities
you did in Previous Lesson. Again, this activity needs
guidance of your parent/ guardian or teacher.

Using the formulas and functions discussed calculate the following:

1. = SUM (total cost of ingredients)
2. = COUNT (total number of materials used)
BUDGET
ALLOWANCE 700.00
Item Bought Quantity Cost/Unit Total
A Chicken 1 ½ Kg. 150.00/Kg.
B Tilapia 1 Kg. 140.00/Kg.
C Assorted ½ Kg. 120.00/Kg.
vegetables
D Garlic ¼ Kg. 80.00/Kg.
E Eggs ½ of tray 6.50/ each
F Total
Expenses
G Balance (Allowance minus
Expenses Total Expenses)

WHAT I HAVE LEARNED

• The electronic spread sheet software is used to

create and produce calculated data needed by
individuals and businesses.
• The spread sheet is designed with functions
and formula that will make calculating numerical data
easier and convenient for you.
• An Excel functions always begins with an equal
(=) sign. Formulas on the other hand, are use like
when you are manually calculating.
