With Manage Your Money and Investments with Excel, you don't need advanced Excel knowledge to analyze and review your financial information. The book includes a set of professionally designed Excel workbooks for performing commonly needed financial tasks such as: comparing mutual funds over time, evaluating mortgages and home equity loans, deciding whether to buy or lease a car, work with credit card finance charges, and more. All necessary formulas and charts will be built in so readers can add their data and get started quickly. Not only is this book great for those tackling financial management for the first time, but it's also perfect for current Money and Quicken users who are finding some of their software features difficult to use. Readers can download the sample workbooks from www quepublishing.com. The sample workbooks will be created in Excel, and will work in multiple versions of Excel or other spreadsheet applications that can read Excel files.
