PRACTICAL-9: Multiple Operation

Like Scenario, Multiple Operations is also a planning tool for ‘what-if’ questions. Unlike
Scenario, Multiple Operations tool does not present the alternative versions in the same cells
or with a drop-down list.

Let’s say ‘ABC’ Publisher publishes a book whose selling price is 100 (cell B1),
manufacturing cost of each book is 35 (cell B2), in addition to fixed cost of 50000 per year
(cell B3). We can calculate profit made by the Publisher in a year if they sell 2000 books and
profit for different sale of quantities that are 1500, 2000, 2500, 3000, 3500 using multiple
operations.

Step 1: To calculate the Profit/Loss, enter the formula =B4(B1-B2)-B3 in the cell ‘B5’

Step 2: In column D, enter expected ‘Annual Sale Figure’.

Step 3: Select the range ‘D2:E6’. This will select the values in column D and empty cells of
column E.
Step 4: Click on ‘Data’ menu and then select ‘Multiple Operations’ option.

Step 5: ‘Multiple operations’ dialog box appears on the screen. Click on the ‘Formulas’ field
of the ‘Multiple operations’ dialog box, then click the cell ‘B5’. This means B5
contains the result i.e. the formula for calculation of result.

Step 6: Place the cursor in the ‘Column input cell’ field and click cell ‘B4’. This means that
content of cell ‘B4’ is variable in the formula.

Step 7: Click on ‘OK’ button.

The profits for the different quantities are now visible in column ‘E’.
