Spreadsheet Critical Thinking

If you need to change values in a worksheet when you own a business or are in a business using Excel allows you to change values quickly and easily.
When someone changes values in a worksheet it helps the business or company know where they are at in their income and their amount they spend.
The advantages of creating an electronic spreadsheet rather than a written one are the electric one can be changed as many times as needed where as the written one would have to be redone.
Being able to calculate the sums of numbers automatically is more valuable then calculating yourself because if you calculate numbers yourself there may be a chance that you can miscalculate and end up with the wrong numbers. But if you do it using an electronic worksheet the numbers will probably almost always be correct.
