Setting up a basic account system

If you have an excel spreadsheet can you get it to add item from column a at random and then deuct items from column b at random to leave a balance like a bank statement?

RE: Setting up a basic account system

Dear Catrina

Thank you for attending Excel Intermediate course! I hope you enjoyed the course and benefited from it.

I am not sure what you mean by Random! If you want something like a bank Statement then please refer to the uploaded Excel file with this post and you will see that I have done a very simple calculation in eth Current Balance column.

All we need to do is to add the new dates, descriptions, withdrawals, and deposits. Copy and paste the formula in Current balance to get the results.

I am hoping that is what you were after!

I hope this has answered your query.

If this has answered your query then I would request you to please mark the question as resolved!! If not and you have a specific question related to this then please post it as a new question and we should be able to provide you the solution for it!!

Kindest Regards

Excel tip:

Checking formulas with multiple operators

When dealing with formulas containing more than one operator (+, -, /, *), Excel follow standard BEDMAS order of operation rules. These rules specify the order that calculations will be performed in, regardless of how the formula reads left to right:

B = brackets
E = exponents
D = division
M = multiplication
A = addition
S = subtraction

It should be noted that multiplication and division are considered equal; as are addition and subtraction.

If you would like to check the order in which Excel is performing calculations in a formula, simply click on the cell containing the formula. Then go to Tools - Formula Auditing and select Evaluate Formula.

In the Evaluate Formula dialogue box that appears on your screen, click the Evaluate button to see how Excel calculates the formula result.
