Calculation Direction....?

Aug 26, 2009

My understanding of Excel is that the calculations are performed in Column A first and then down through the rows in Column A. After all the calculations are finished in A, the calculation moves over to Column B and down the rows in B. Is this true?

I know that Excel is a little more complicated than that especially when it creates a queue for calculations, etc. However, assuming there's no calculation list/queue, would the above be correct?

Average Wind Direction

Aug 5, 2014

I have a list of wind directions and I want to get the average. Obviously, there is an issue since the average of a northwest (330) and northeast (030) wind is 360, not 180. I've got several formulas in the attached spreadsheet, but none seem to give the correct results.

Compass Direction Differences

Jul 12, 2006

I'm trying to do is take the difference of two wind directions but need the actual difference not the true mathematical difference. For example:

Wind direction 350 was forecasted
Wind direction 020 was observed
The difference is 030 degrees off not 330 degrees.

How do I do a formula to state the true difference not numeric?

I was figuring these conditions:
- if the number is above 180 & below 360 just subtract 180
- if the number is below 180 & above 0 just add 180

Using w/ example:
350-180=170
020+180=200
170-200=-030 (then take ABS to get 030)

I'm a weather professional and doing tons of metrics regarding weather parameters.

When placing a control on a worksheet, the text in the label,option box etc controls is vertical and I can't find a way of changing the direction to left to right. It doesn't happen on all workbooks.

Under Tools/Options/International the text direction states left to right

IF Calculation

Nov 10, 2008

Hoping someone might be able to kindly help me out with this one. It's for a spreadsheet of call charges (credit crunch thing).

On the sheet, I have the call charge up to an hour ($H$5). Over an hour, it's charged per minute at the rate in $H$6.

In cell E27 I can enter the number of minutes for the call.

So basically, if E27 is up to a value of 60 then the cost is just H5, if the value in E27 is 61 or more then it's H5 + (E27-60)*H6.

I'm thinking it's an 'IF' but keep making a mess of it...

Calculation Within A Pivot

Dec 11, 2013

What I need is to add a field that gives a gross margin percentage for a project.

To begin, I simplified the following data that the Pivot Table is using. Project (10 different projects), Account Number, Account Category (Revenue, and Cost), Debit Amount, Credit Amount, and a manually inserted column named Total (CR Amount - DR Amount). See 1st image. Pivot1.jpg

I have designed the Pivot table so it lays out like this. Pivot2.png Pivot3 (2).png

I have been trying to enter a calculated field that would automatically provide the Gross Margin Percentage. In the 2nd image, the Grand Total is the gross margin, but I am unable to use that as a selection when creating a calculated field.

Automate The Calculation?

May 21, 2014

I am trying to figure out the calculation steps that Goal Seek is doing behind the scenes so I can create the formula rather than clicking on goal seek whenever I need to make a change. I need to maintain certain weeks of supply every week depending on the sales. Let's say i want to maintain 5 weeks of supply every week, I would like to insert a column for "Suggested To Order' column that would change if weeks of supply goes below 5. In this scenario I would do a Goal Seek, but I want to automate the calculation so I don't have to do this step every week.

Use IF And ROUND In Same Calculation

Oct 23, 2009

I'm creating a spreadsheet to calculate materials with the following columns Cost/10% of Cost/Customer Cost/Qty/Total cost.

I understand that whilst showing rounded to 2 decimal places excel stores more than this in the cell. which then throws out the Total cost by a few pence.

My research leads me to believe I need to use the ROUND function but I'm unsure which cell to use it or how.

Calculation Of Average In Vba?

Feb 12, 2014

I use VBA with the macro recorder. Now I'd like to programming a code to calculate the average of three cells.

I've done a lot of measurements about 180 but it can be also more. For one test object I've always done three measurements to get then an average.

My values are beginning in cell C2:CXXX, D2:Dxxx and E2:Exxx. For example I'd like to get the average from C2:C4, D2:D4 and E2:E4. The result of C2:C4 I'd like to have in cell H2, the result of D2:D4 in cell I2 and the result of E2:E4 in cell J2. Then the next calculation is C5:C7, D5:D7, E5:E7 and the results in H3, I3 and J3. And so on.

I've attached my excel file, maybe I didn't explained it well. The VBA-Code is for sheet Export.

Slow Calculation

Dec 5, 2009

I got a work sheet with 672 columns of information that im trying to cross compare against. I wanna compare each column against every other column in that row. I have 200 rows of data. That means each i need excel to do 226,128 comparion calculations each row. So that means in the entire work sheet its gotta do 91 million comparisons. Im on a dual core 1.8ghz core 2 duo cpu and 2 gigs of ram on xp pro with excel 2007. I even bumped up my virtual memory by 3 times the size it was yet still its taking forever.

Its taking over 3 hours to do this whole page of calculations. So i opened up visual c++ and quickly programmed in the same code with some generic values and within 3 seconds it computed it all. My guess is that the bottle neck is when excel has retrieve data from the cells because other than that i cant figure out why its so slow. Heres a section of my

one, to calculate the time in years months and days that has passed between

Month End Calculation

Mar 22, 2006

I am writing a formula to calculate the last and next month end e.g. if I
enter 28-02-06, the expected result will be liked 31-01-06 and 31-03-06.
28-02-06 will be stored in cell A1, and my expected result will be displayed
in A2 & A3.

My formular is liked " =A1-31 , = A1+31. But because of "31"
has to change each month, therefore if doesn't work to my calcaulation.
Also, from the above example, the calculation for March is correct "31-03-06"
but the January is worng, it comes date on 28-01-06. But I need both result

Calculation On Time

Mar 1, 2009

I have been burning brain cells trying to figure this out.
I get these numbers from an online source and they come in like this:

A B C D E
1/1/0912:01AM02:40AM11:18AM07:55PM

The times do not come in as times...when I format the cell to time it doesnt change...that is my first problem.

What I would need to do to these times is: take B and C and find what time is in the middle of them and put that in a different column.

This mess will also need to be plotted on a chart with time by the minute for one day as the X axis. In my example I drew lines on the chart to show what I mean....the blue lines I dont want charted...I use those to find the time in the middle.
