Practical learning library

Learn it.
Try it. Use it.

Explore nine lessons across Excel, accounting, Word and e-commerce. Each includes theory, steps, an example and a practice task.

ExcelRemaining stock with SUMIF

Learning goal: Learn to calculate quantities from separate arrival and sales tables.

Theory

Use product codes rather than product names. SUMIF adds quantities for one product code. Subtract total sales from total arrivals.

Step-by-step method

  1. Create a Stock In sheet: A = Product Code, B = Quantity.
  2. Create a Daily Sales sheet with the same columns.
  3. On a Summary sheet, enter a product code in A2.
  4. Enter the formula below in B2 and copy down.
=SUMIF('Stock In'!A:A,A2,'Stock In'!B:B)-SUMIF('Daily Sales'!A:A,A2,'Daily Sales'!B:B)

Worked example

Product P001 arrives twice: 20 and 15 units. Sales total 8 units. Remaining quantity = 27.

Your practice task

Enter three products and at least two sales for each. Check your calculated balance against a manual total.

Remember: Apply conditional formatting to balances below 5. Review negative balances for entry errors.

ExcelMonthly sales with SUMIFS

Learning goal: Summarize sales for a month without manually filtering every row.

Theory

SUMIFS adds values that match multiple criteria. A start date and the first day of the following month provide reliable month boundaries.

Step-by-step method

  1. Place sale dates in column A and sale amounts in column D.
  2. Enter the first date of your month in F2 as a real Excel date.
  3. Use the formula below to sum that month.
  4. Change F2 to compare another month.
=SUMIFS(D:D,A:A,">="&F2,A:A,"<"&EDATE(F2,1))

Worked example

With F2 set to 1 October 2026, sales on 5 October and 31 October count. A sale on 1 November does not.

Your practice task

Enter five sales across two months and verify both totals manually.

Remember: Keep dates as dates and amounts as numbers. Exclude blank dates from your source records.

ExcelFind product information with VLOOKUP

Learning goal: Retrieve a price from a product catalog.

Theory

VLOOKUP searches the first column of a table. FALSE requests an exact match; IFERROR makes missing product codes easier to understand.

Step-by-step method

  1. Create a Catalog sheet: code in A, product in B, price in C.
  2. Enter a product code in A2 on your sales sheet.
  3. Use the formula below in your price column.
  4. Check the result against the catalog.
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(A2,Catalog!A:C,3,FALSE),"Check product code")

Worked example

P001 in the catalog has a price of 1,250. Looking up P001 returns 1,250.

Your practice task

Create a five-item catalog, then test one valid and one invalid code.

Remember: Use unique product codes and exact matching. Avoid manually typing lookup prices on every sale.

AccountingRecord a cash sale

Learning goal: Understand the journal entry for an immediate cash sale.

Theory

A debit increases an asset such as cash. A credit increases revenue. This example records revenue only; stock and cost of goods sold need their own entry where applicable.

Step-by-step method

  1. Identify how payment was received.
  2. Confirm the sales amount from the invoice.
  3. Debit Cash for the amount received.
  4. Credit Sales Revenue for the same amount.
Debit Cash: PKR 5,000 Credit Sales Revenue: PKR 5,000

Worked example

A customer pays PKR 5,000 immediately for goods. Cash and revenue each increase by PKR 5,000.

Your practice task

Write the entry for an PKR 8,000 cash sale and check that debits equal credits.

Remember: For a credit sale, debit Accounts Receivable instead of Cash. Record applicable tax separately.

AccountingPrepare a bank reconciliation

Learning goal: Explain differences between your cash book and bank statement.

Theory

Timing differences and missing entries can cause balances to differ. Match transactions first, then distinguish outstanding payments, deposits in transit and bank items not yet recorded.

Step-by-step method

  1. Compare the same period in both records.
  2. Mark transactions that appear in both.
  3. Record bank charges or interest missing from the cash book.
  4. List outstanding payments and deposits in transit.
  5. Compare the adjusted balances.
Adjusted bank balance = statement balance + deposits in transit − outstanding payments

Worked example

Statement balance: 50,000. Deposit in transit: 10,000. Outstanding payments: 5,000. Adjusted balance: 55,000.

Your practice task

Create a reconciliation with a bank charge and one outstanding payment. Explain each adjustment.

Remember: Bank charges affect the cash book. Timing differences normally appear in the reconciliation without a new cash-book entry.

AccountingCalculate straight-line depreciation

Learning goal: Allocate an asset’s depreciable cost across its useful life.

Theory

Straight-line depreciation charges the same amount each year when estimates remain unchanged. Residual value is the estimated value at the end of useful life.

Step-by-step method

  1. Identify original cost.
  2. Estimate residual value.
  3. Determine useful life in years.
  4. Divide depreciable cost by useful life.
Annual depreciation = (Cost − Residual value) / Useful life

Worked example

A computer costs 100,000, has residual value 10,000 and useful life 3 years. Annual depreciation = 30,000.

Your practice task

Calculate the annual charge for cost 80,000, residual value 8,000 and life 4 years. Answer: 18,000.

Remember: Partial-year charges depend on the accounting policy and the date the asset becomes available for use.

WordBuild a readable professional CV

Learning goal: Prepare a CV that is easy to scan and edit.

Theory

A clear text structure helps readers locate skills and experience. Standard headings and simple layouts also support parsing by applicant tracking systems, although results vary by system.

Step-by-step method

  1. Start with name and contact details.
  2. Add a short summary tailored to the role.
  3. Use standard headings: Experience, Education and Skills.
  4. Write concise bullets describing real responsibilities.
  5. Check the reading order and export a searchable PDF.
Experience bullet: Organized daily sales records and maintained an Excel inventory sheet.

Worked example

A data-entry application should highlight accuracy, spreadsheets and relevant tasks using only experience you can substantiate.

Your practice task

Create a one-page CV and copy its text into a plain-text editor to inspect the order.

Remember: Avoid putting essential contact details only in headers, images or text boxes. Follow the employer’s requested file format.

WordUse styles and a table of contents

Learning goal: Create consistent headings in longer documents.

Theory

Styles keep formatting consistent. An automatic table of contents uses heading structure and can be refreshed after edits.

Step-by-step method

  1. Apply Heading 1 to section titles.
  2. Apply Heading 2 to subsections.
  3. Choose References > Table of Contents.
  4. After edits, update the entire table.
Heading 1: Monthly Report Heading 2: Sales Summary Normal: Report body text

Worked example

Changing a heading updates the navigation structure; updating the table of contents refreshes its text and page numbers.

Your practice task

Prepare a three-section report, then change one heading and update the contents.

Remember: Use page breaks rather than repeated blank lines to start a new page.

E-commerceReview a product listing

Learning goal: Prepare product information that answers buyer questions.

Theory

A useful listing depends on accurate source information. Titles, attributes, photos and condition descriptions should agree with one another.

Step-by-step method

  1. Verify brand, model, size and condition.
  2. Write a readable title with key product details.
  3. Complete relevant item specifics.
  4. Describe included items and visible defects.
  5. Check photos and shipping information.
Sample: Men’s Cotton Casual Shirt – Navy – Size M

Worked example

Use “cotton” only if the label confirms the material. Mention a missing tag or packaging when relevant.

Your practice task

Review a sample product and list five facts a buyer needs before ordering.

Remember: Avoid unsupported authenticity claims, misleading brand terms and promises of guaranteed sales.

Weekend project
