Finance
We then moved on to Unit 3, Finance. In finance we began to learn the basic concepts of Excel. We learned how to use Excel to calculate equations for us and how to be the most productive we can be with Excel. We learned how to make a budget using Excel and to calculate what we would need for our future life. Later in unit 3 we discovered the real importance of money and the role it plays. We finished by making balance sheets for accounting and mastering the basics of Excel.

Future Life Budget The future life assignment is one of the most important assignments we did the whole year. I showed us how to apply the skills that we learned using Excel. It showed us that what we learned here could apply to everyday things that we do. It also worked as an exercise to master our techniques of basic Excel.

Balance Sheets Balance sheets were a great way to practice our use of excel and to become as productive as possible. When accounting time is everything, so you need to learn how to as productive and as efficient as possible. These balance sheets mostly took place with us doing simple math equations but they made it very easy to transfer what we were doing into more important things like the future life project and made it easy to see the comparison of what we are doing in class and what we would use it for outside of school.

Finance Quiz
The quiz took place using Excel and we had to make practice balance sheets and use the sheets to create graphs for the scenarios given. The quiz was almost a direct example of the practice balance sheets we were doing before. The quiz was also an example to show us many different ways that Excel and accounting in general was being used. It tested our knowledge and productivity using Excel.
