• SUMIFS(): To total revenue or expenses by category (e.g., sum all "Catering" costs).
• ROUND(AVG(...),2): For averaging costs per attendee or per event type.
• IF(AND(...), "Over Budget", "On Track"): Conditional logic to flag overspending in the status column.
• =SUM([Amount]) within structured tables for automatic total aggregation.
• =(Total Revenue - Total Expenses)/Total Revenue: To compute profit margin percentage dynamically.
• PivotTable integration (optional): For generating dynamic summaries and drill-downs across events or time periods.

Conditional Formatting
