Financial functions can be very useful
for calculating things such as costs and payments. These formulas
make it a lot easier, and take up less space by calculating it in
one cell rather than three or four cells.

Use References (absolute & relative) locking cell References
When inserting formulas, they can
be either absolute or relative form. When using absolute references,
the exact address of a cell will be used, regardless of the position
of the cell that contains the formula. Whereas, with relative referencing,
the address of a cell is based on the relative position of the cell
that contains the formula and the cell referred to. If you make
copies of the formula and place it in other cells, the reference
automatically changes accordingly.
