TABLE STRUCTURE AND COLUMN DESIGN

FORMULAS REQUIRED

This template uses advanced Excel formulas to ensure accuracy and automate financial reporting:

• Variance (Column G): =IF(Actual <> "", Actual - Budget, "")
• Variance % (Column H): =IF(Budget<>0, IF(Actual<>"", (Actual - Budget)/Budget, ""), "N/A")
• Total Revenue (Cell B17): =SUMIF(Main_Category, "Revenue", Actual_Amount)
• Total Expenses (Cell B18): =SUMIF(Main_Category, "Expense", Actual_Amount)
• Net Profit/Loss (Cell B20): =B17 - B18

CONDITIONAL FORMATTING

To enhance readability and quickly identify financial anomalies, the template applies dynamic formatting:

• Variance Column (G): Red fill with white text for values > 0 (over budget). Green fill with white text for values < 0 (under budget).
• Variance % Column (H): Color scale from red (-20%) to green (+20%), with amber in the middle.
• Net Profit/Loss: If negative, cell turns red with bold font; if positive, turns green and bold.
