Chapter 3 outlines various conditional functions for summarizing data, including AVERAGEIF, COUNTIF, and SUMIF, along with their multi-criteria counterparts. It provides examples of how to use these functions to calculate averages, counts, and sums based on specified criteria. The chapter emphasizes the practical application of these functions in analyzing customer data.

Chapter 3: Perform calculations on data

The following table displays other conditional functions you can use to summarize data.

Function Description
AVERAGEIF Finds the average of values within a cell range that meet a
specified criterion

AVERAGEIFS Finds the average of values within a cell range that meet
multiple criteria

COUNT Counts the cells in a range that contain numerical values

COUNTA Counts the cells in a range that are not empty

COUNTBLANK Counts the cells in a range that are empty

COUNTIF Counts the cells in a range that meet a specified criterion

COUNTIFS Counts the cells in a range that meet multiple criteria

IFERROR Displays one value if a formula results in an error and another


if it doesn’t

SUMIF Adds the values in a range that meet a single criterion

SUMIFS Adds the values in a range that meet multiple criteria

To create a formula that uses the AVERAGEIF function, you define the range to be
examined for the criterion, the criterion, and, if required, the range from which to
draw the values. As an example, consider a worksheet that lists each customer’s ID
number, name, state, and total monthly shipping bill. If you want to find the average
order of customers from the state of Washington (abbreviated in the worksheet as
WA), you can create the formula =AVERAGEIF(C3:C6, “WA”, D3:D6).

Sample data that illustrates the preceding example

The AVERAGEIFS, SUMIFS, and COUNTIFS functions extend the capabilities of the
AVERAGEIF, SUMIF, and COUNTIF functions to allow for multiple criteria. For example,
if you want to find the sum of all orders of at least $100,000 placed by companies
in Washington, you can create the formula =SUMIFS(D2:D5, C2:C5, “=WA”, D2:D5,
“>=100000”).
