From integrating data from a variety of different sources, through organazing and analyzing financial data, to presenting it in a variety of graphical forms, this book has you covered.

Then you’ll learn techniques for managing and analyzing the data before discovering ways to present it graphically. The book then looks at Excel’s built in features for financial analysis, and even shows how you can combine the built in features to build your own analysis functions.
