Key aspects of Modeling & Excel Usage

Building a ROBUST model is a must for other people to use your model

It should generate the correct results

It should have proper area for Inputs/ Outputs

It should be able to handle errors properly

Naming/ Labeling of data items should be done properly

Accidental changing of model parameters should be avoided

The model should be easy to understand on computer and in printout

Reusable components can be made in the excel sheet, which can be made later

SPEED is the key in modeling

A large model might have multiple excel sheets and a lot of formulas and calculations. It is necessary to navigate through the excel sheet in a speedy manner and understand it

It is a fact that mouse is 5 times slower than using the keyboard to use excel. Due to heavy involvement of the users, having a strong command over the keyboard shortcuts is a must!

A well designed excel sheet is easy to understand as well

Refer Worksheet A


Simple Exercises in Excel

The financials of a start-up company are given to you. The company would be eligible for funding if their operating profit margin is greater than 35% and CAGR in revenue growth is greater than 50%.

Create a model to check if the company is eligible for funding. Also visually indicate the eligibility.

Use worksheet B

Hint

Use (P(t)/ P(t-k))^(1/k) -1 to calculate CAGR

Use AND function to calculate eligibility

Use IF function to print it

Use conditional formatting to output the results

Email ids of 100 people are given to you. They all need to be migrated to a new domain of edupristine.com. Write a function to migrate all email ids to new domain

Use worksheet C

Hint

Use FIND to find the common character

Use LEFT function

Use CONCATENATE function

11


Arrays in Excel

12

Array (Can be loosely thought of as a list) is a group of cells or values that Excel treats as a

unit

No longer treats the cells individually, but list of cells as an individual entity

Since individual cells are not independent entities, so they cannot be changed individually

Enables apply a formula to every cell in the range using just a single operation

For any matrix Operation

Calculate the exact size of the transposed Matrix

Select the appropriate range

Use the function

Press SHIFT + CTRL + ENTER

Use Worksheet D

To Run Array Functions Remember to use CTRL + SHIFT + ENTER


Frequently Used Array functions

13

Function Name Function

SUMPRODUCT() To Sumproduct 2 matrices

TRANSPOSE() To transpose a matrix

MATCH() Match and Index are used in conjunction as a lookup function

INDEX() Match and Index are used in conjunction as a lookup function

VLOOKUP() To lookup for a particular value in array, with the starting column acting as a

lookup reference

COLUMN() Returns the column number of the cell referenced

ROW() Returns the row number of the cell referenced

HLOOKUP() To lookup for a particular value in array, with the top row acting as lookup

reference


Using the VLookUp Function

14

VLOOKUP() function

The V in VLOOKUP() stands for vertical

Works by looking in the first column of a table for the value you specify

It then looks across the appropriate number of columns (which you specify) and returns whatever value it finds there

The final option (range_lookup) is a Boolean value that determines how Excel finds the value. Always use FALSE- for exact match

Whenever looking for data picked from the net, trim the strings before comparison

Question (Use WorkSheet E)

The ID of defaulters and their amount and phone number has been provided by the Credit Bureau in Columns A to D.

Column F contains the IDs of your clients. Use Vlookupfunction to find out the default amount of your clients.

One of the most widely used functions in Excel


Using the HLookup Function

15

HLOOKUP() function is

H in HLOOKUP() stands for horizontal

Similar to VLOOKUP()

It searches for the lookup value in the first row of a table

Question: Use Worksheet F

Various expenses of Pristine are given in a table. Write a function to

calculate the total expenses for any

desired month (user should be able to

change this value, and automatically

the expenses should be updated)

Both Vlookup and Hlookup have a limitation of using the first Column/ Row as reference


Index & Match Functions

16

INDEX() returns the reference or the value of a cell at the intersection of a row and column inside a reference

MATCH() function

looks through a row or column of cells for a value

If it finds a match, it returns the relative position of the match in the row or column

Use the usual wildcard characters within the lookup_valueargument (provided that match_type is 0 and lookup_value is

text)

Use the question mark (?) for single characters and the asterisk (*) for multiple characters

See Worksheet G


Use Index and Match Any Column & row Lookup

17

Index and Match can be used in conjunction to perform complex lookup functions

Use Match to generate the row number that you are interested in

Use Index to generate the value that you are looking for

Similar to implementation of a new kind of directory service

Use Worksheet H

Various expenses of Pristine are given in a table. Write a function to calculate the desired expense head for any desired month (user should be able to change both the

values, and automatically the expenses should be updated)

Easily Extendible approach to get any generalized kind of search

(where both row and column can be variable)

Always Use FALSE in

the boolean required

for comparison

Pivot Tables An introduction

Easy Summarization & Analysis Tool

19


Pivot Tables

Summarize data in one field

called a data field

and break it down according to the data in another field.

The unique values in the second field (called the row field) become the row headings

Further break down your data by specifying a third field

called the column field

20


Terms used in Excel

Data source: The original data

Range, a table, imported data, or an external data source.

Field: A category of data, such as Region, Quarter, or Sales

Most PivotTables are derived from tables or databases, a PivotTable field is directly analogous to a table or

database field

Row field: A field with a limited set of distinct text, numeric, or date values to use as row labels in the

PivotTable

Column field: A field with a limited set of distinct text, numeric, or date values to use as column labels for the

PivotTable

Report filter: A field with a limited set of distinct text, numeric, or date values that you use to filter the

PivotTable view

PivotTable items: The items from the source list used as row, column, and page labels

21


Summarize Large Data

To start the pivot wizard:

ALT D + P

To complete the process, press finish

Use Example I

Calculate Region Wise, Year wise sales

Give Product wise Data for 2008 Only

22


Summarize Large Data

To start the pivot wizard:

ALT D + P

To complete the process, press finish

Use Example I



23


Filtering for Particular Rows/ Columns

Use Example I



Get Data only for Delhi

24


Other Customization Options

Selecting the entire PivotTable: Choose Options, Select, Entire PivotTable

Selecting PivotTable items: Select the entire PivotTable, then choose Options, Select. In the list, click the PivotTable element you want to select: Labels and Values, Values, or Labels

Formatting the PivotTable: Choose the Design tab and then click a style in the PivotTable Styles gallery

Sorting the PivotTable: Click any label in either the row field or the column field, choose the Options tab, and then click either Sort A to Z or Sort Z to A. (If the field contains dates, click Sort Oldest to

Newest or Sort Newest to Oldest, instead.)

Refreshing PivotTable data: Choose Options and then click the top half of the Refresh button

Filtering the PivotTable: Click-and-drag a field to the Report Filter area, drop down the report filter list, and then click an item in the list

25


Give the average sales in regions

Use Example I




Instead of Total, give the average sales

26


Changing the Pivot Table

Click any cell in the PivotTables data area

Choose Formulas, Calculated Field

Excel displays the Insert Calculated Field dialog box

Use the Name text box to enter a name for the calculated item

Use the Formula text box to enter the formula you want to use for the calculated item

Use Example I




Instead of Total, give the average sales

Calculate the forecast for sales in 2009

27


Errors in Functions

Error Meaning

# DIV/ 0! Divide by Zero Error

Generally seen when trying to divide by empty cell

# NAME? Function name not found error

Generally seen in misspelling of function

# N/A Data Not available

Quite often seen Vlookup cannot find data

# REF! Invalid Cell reference

Typically when a cell is referenced, which has been deleted

# VALUE! Argument/ Operand of the wrong type

# NUM! Problem in value

Typically when a +ve number is expected, and ve number is given as argument

28

Important to understand what kind of error can occur and handle it properly


Use ISERROR() to Handle Errors

Excel 2003 has ISERROR() to determine, if there are any exceptions in the formulas

Handle exception and exit the error gracefully

Excel 2007 also has an IFERROR() function to handle errors

Use Worksheet E to handle the errors and display Not Defaulted

Understanding an integrated financial Model



30


Creating the template for financial modeling Matrix Integrity across sheets and tower model for within the sheet

Tower Model within sheet

Reduce the size of the first 1-2 columns to create the headings

Ctrl + arrow keys to move faster from 1 section to another

Larger column width to put in the names and text information

Matrix integrity to be maintained across multiple sheets

Eases copy paste and faster dragging of formulas

Reduces chances of errors in writing the formulas linked across sheets

31


Freeze panes at the right spots to ease navigation in the model

The years (indicating Actual and Projected) are put in one of the top row

Rows and columns are frozen at the intersection of the left hand information column and the years row at the top
