Formulas Required
The template incorporates dynamic formulas to automate calculations:- Current Value Calculation:
=IF(B9="", 0, Purchase_Price * (1 - (TODAY() - Purchase_Date) / 365.25 * 0.05))
This applies a standard annual depreciation of 5% and updates value automatically. - Age in Years:
=ROUND((TODAY() - Purchase_Date) / 365.25, 1)
Displays how old each asset is in decimal years. - Warranty Alert Flag (in Status column or separate alert column):
=IF(AND(Warranty_Expiry - TODAY() <= 30, Warranty_Expiry >= TODAY()), "Expiring Soon", IF(Warranty_Expiry < TODAY(), "Expired", "Valid"))
Alerts users when warranties are near or past expiry. - Asset Count by Category (Category Summary sheet):
=COUNTIF(Asset_Inventory!$C:$C, "Appliances")
Uses COUNTIF to tally assets per category across all sheets.
Conditional Formatting Rules
To enhance readability and highlight critical data points:- Warranty Expiry: Highlight cells red if warranty expires within 30 days.
- Status: Green for "Active", yellow for "Under Repair", red for "Scratched".
- Purchase Price & Current Value: Use color scales (green to red) to show value retention over time.
- Aging Assets: Apply data bars in the “Age in Years” column to visualize asset longevity.

- Update Regularly: Review and update asset status, maintenance logs, and values quarterly.
