Formulas Required
- Total Hours per Asset (in Time Allocation Log): Use SUMIFS to total hours grouped by Asset ID.
- Monthly Cost Calculation (in Financial Summary): =SUMPRODUCT(TimeLog!$E$2:$E$1000 * TimeLog!$G$2:$G$1000) → applies hourly rate to labor time.
- Depreciation Amount: =IF(Assets!D2 <> "", Assets!C2 * Assets!E2 / 12, 0) → monthly depreciation based on purchase date and rate.
- ROI Calculation: =((Revenue - Total Cost) / Total Cost) * 100 → measures return on investment.
- Conditional Sum for High-Utilization Assets: =IF(Assets!F2 > 50, "High Utilization", IF(Assets!F2 > 30, "Medium", "Low")) → flags assets used over 30 hours/month.
- Automated Date-Based Categorization: Use EOMONTH() to group data by month automatically.
Conditional Formatting Rules
- Red Highlight on High Cost Items: Apply red fill if "Total Cost" > $10,000 in Financial Summary.
- Yellow for Assets with Over 10 Hours/Month: In Time Allocation Log, highlight rows where hours > 10.
- Green for Positive ROI (>25%): Highlight ROI cells above 25% in Financial Summary.
- Text Formatting for Status (e.g., "Active", "Out of Service"): Use conditional formatting to color-code status fields.
- Time-based alerts: Show a warning if time logged is outside business hours (e.g., 9am–5pm).
