    Hello sir
    Sir, I am very confused in exam format,
    I mean, should we write the wording of formula in one cell of Excel and do calculation in another cell? Does acca require the wording and numericals of formula or calculation or we can simply add calculation in cell and just label it forexample, write sales volume variance in one cell and calculate directly in another cell, or we should write the whole formula in one cell, label in second cell and calculate it in another cell.
    Regards
    Dilawar khan

    Write the label in one cell and the calculation in the next cell. There is no need to write out the formula in another cell – they will be able to see the formula used for the calculation anyway.
