1. Using an excel spreadsheet can help you make business decisions by giving you a better outlook on what you have to work with it can do so much more than a paper and pencil, it tells you exactly what you have, what you could have how much you spend ect. and it does all the work for you fast.

2. Spreadsheets can help you make business decisions by giving you projections and predictions of the future and keeping you updated on how you spend your money.

3. There are several advantages on using an automated spreadsheet rather than a written one, some of them are: not have to write a new one every time you make a mistake, using templates so most of the work is done for you, typing in formulas so its electronically calculated and getting the work done faster.

4. Having a spreadsheet recalculated by excel is easier to use because the ones done by hand must be re done every time you mess up, which is a lot of work, but if you just type the new numbers in the spreadsheet it will recalculate by it's self, no work done.
