    • MATCH Function: Returns the position of a value within a range

    Excel Tools

    • Pivot Tables: Summarize and organize data in a spreadsheet
    • Goal Seek: Finds the input value required to achieve a desired output
    • Scenarios: Allow multiple variable values to be tested and analyzed (up to 32 values per scenario)
