  • Counting Non Duplicate Entries in a Range in Excel

    When we are doing analysis in excel or preparing the reports, we will face situations where we need to calculate the unique entries. There is no direct function in Excel to calculate only non duplicate entries in a Range. However this can be achieved through array functions of Excel. Below is the example through which we will learn to use Excel function to calculate non duplicate entries count.

    Count non duplicate values

    The above example has list of gadgets in Column A2 to A10. However there are duplicates in List. Our goal is calculate unique number of Gadgets. So the formula to count non duplicate entry is
    =SUM(1/COUNTIF(A2:A10,A2:A10)) which returns 5. i.e out of 9 entries only 5 items are unique.
    Note: For using array functions, press Ctrl+Shift+Enter(Not Just Enter). Excel surrounds the formula with braces to remind you that it is a array formula.
    This formula is first used by David Hager and then passed around on various web sites and newsgroups. The  above array formula works fine unless the range contains one or empty cells. To overcome this short fall we should use below formula with new IFERROR function.
    =SUM(IFERROR(1/COUNTIF(A1:A10,A1:A10),0))
    The preceding formula work with both values and text. If the range contains only numeric values or blank cells(But no text), we can use the below mentioned formula(This is not array formula) to count the number of non duplicate or unique values.
    =SUM(N(FREQUENCY(A1:A10,A1:A10)>0))

  • Calculating Weighted Average in Excel

    Excel inbuilt Average function returns the average(or Mean) of a range of a data. However in many occasions we are required to calculate weighted average. Though Excel do not comes with a straight function to calculate weighted average. This can be done with the use of SUMPRODUCT and SUM functions. Let us start learning about weighted average with an example.

    Below is the sample data from a call center and let us calculate the Average Handle Time(AHT) for the day using different intervals calls and AHT.  The below data shows that initial hours calls were less and the AHT too was less. But as the call volume increased the AHT also increased.,

    Excel Formula Example

    The simple average formula =AVERAGE(C3:C9) returns 216.42. The problem with this is that it calculates average without considering the number calls. So we need to calculate average considering the number of calls received on each intervals. Ideally, the weighted average is the appropriate method to calculate like this calculations.

    So weighted average formula for the above example is =SUMPRODUCT(C3:C9,B3:B9)/SUM(B3:B9)
    This formula multiplies each AHT by its corresponding number calls and then adds all those products. The result is then divided by the number of days. This formula can be easily implemented to other types of calculations where weighted average is required.

  • Creating a Drop Down List in a Cell in Excel 2012

    There are situations, where we need to use restricted set of data in a list. When in data entry works are carried out by many people, chances are vast that small errors might occur. To overcome this, we can use drop down list in Excel. This not only restricts the user to enter the correct data also it helps to reduce the time to write it manually.  So for creating Drop down list, do we need to use Excel VBA feature? No;. Excel provides this feature in the form of data validation. So let us see how to create drop down list in Excel.

    • Enter the list of items in a range
    • Select the cell that will contain the drop down list
    • Choose Data-> Data Tools->Data Validation
