Abstract

Spreadsheets have become as commonplace as calculators in analysis and decision making. In this chapter we explore the importance of creating decision making models with Excel. We also consider the characteristics that make spreadsheets useful, not only for ourselves, but for others with whom we collaborate. As with any tool, learning to use them effectively requires carefully conceived planning and repeated practice; thus, we will terminate the chapter with an example of a poorly planned spreadsheet that is rehabilitated into a shining example of what a spreadsheet can be.
