If you have previous figures to work from there are a few possible ways. You can use the FORECAST function if you have two sets of dependent figures. You could also use a standard formula if there is a pattern in the figures you have already have got. So if sales had gone up by 10% each year, you could increase the last sales you had by 10%. Forecasting is not always precise so to be accurate is not always certain, particularly with something like sales as it can be affected by many factors. So there are lots of functions that could be used.

If total sales is in M2, then put this formula in N2 to show 15% increase in sales.=M2*1.15
The formula for total sales is typically expressed as: Total Sales = Price per Unit × Number of Units Sold. This formula calculates the revenue generated from selling a specific quantity of goods at a given price. It can also be adjusted to include discounts, returns, or other factors that may affect the final sales figure.
The simplest way is to use the SUM function to add up the sales for the year. The specific implementation will depend on where the values are, so it will depend on what way you have the individual sales entered. There are many ways that you may have them, like with monthly totals or regional totals or totals for individual salespeople, amongst other ways. Say you have the sales individually listed in all the cells from B2 to B125, you could have the following SUM function, in cell B126: =SUM(B2:B125)
We had a profit in the ANNUAL SALES of this year.
You would calculate it using the Sum function. It will depend on what cells your values are in as to what form the actual formula will take.
((cur ann sales-pre ann sales) / cur ann sales )* 100
To calculate the average monthly sales in an Excel sheet, you can use the AVERAGE function. First, select the range of cells that contain the monthly sales data. Then, enter the formula =AVERAGE(range) where "range" is the selected cell range (e.g., A1:A12 for 12 months). Finally, press Enter to get the average monthly sales value.
You can figure annual sales in various ways. The easiest way is by adding the opening stock to the purchases. You should them subtract the closing stock for the year and you will get the annual sales.
To calculate weekly sales in Excel, you can use the SUM function combined with a date range. For example, if your sales data is in column B (with sales amounts) and the corresponding dates are in column A, you can use the formula: =SUMIFS(B:B, A:A, ">=start_date", A:A, "<=end_date"), replacing start_date and end_date with the actual dates for the week you're analyzing. You can also use cell references for dynamic calculations. Make sure your date format in the criteria matches the format in your data.
Annual sales refers to the total sales have been made in a given year. When you deduct the expenditure from annual sales, you would be able to get your profit for the year.
