Detailed explanation-1: -The formula in B3 will automatically recalculate and display the new value in cell B3. Excel will not always tell you if your formula contains an error, so it’s up to you to check all of your formulas.
Detailed explanation-2: -Use the IF function, one of the logical functions, to return one value if a condition is true and another value if it’s false. For example: =IF(A2>B2, "Over Budget", "OK") =IF(A2=B2, B4-A4, "")
Detailed explanation-3: -If you want to maintain the original cell reference when you copy it, you “lock” it by putting a dollar sign ($) before the cell and column references. For example, when you copy the formula =$A$2+$B$2 from C2 to D2, the formula stays exactly the same. This is an absolute reference.
