Formulas Required

- `=SUMIF(HabitTracker[Date], ">=04/01/2025", HabitTracker[Profit Impact Estimate])` – for monthly profit projections. - `=COUNTIF(HabitTracker[Status], "Completed")` – used in Weekly Summary to count completed habits. - `=AVERAGEIFS(HabitTracker[Time Spent], HabitTracker[Status], "Completed")` – average time spent on successful habits. - `=SUM(DailyProfitLog[Net Profit])` – total net profit for the week/month. - Conditional logic using `IF`, `AND`, and `OR` to flag underperforming weeks.

Conditional Formatting

- **Habit Tracker:** Highlight completed habits green; skipped ones in red. Use color scales for Time Spent (e.g., light blue to dark blue). - **Daily Profit Log:** Format Net Profit > 0 in green, < 0 in red. - **Weekly Summary Dashboard:** Color progress bars (via data bars) for "Progress Toward Goal" – green if ≥80%, yellow below that, red if under 50%. - Use icon sets to show trend: upward arrow for profit growth, downward for decline.
