Microsoft Excel Has Math Problems!

Microsoft Excel Has Math Problems
Redmond, Wash. (Oct. 1, 2007)
By WebCPA staff

Microsoft has identified an odd bug in Excel 2007 that incorrectly displays 100,000 as the multiplication result in a cell when the answer should be 65,535 or 65,536.

Microsoft employee David Gainer wrote in a posting on the Microsoft Excel blog that calculations such as 77.1*850 and 5.1*12,850 produce the wrong result of 100,000 instead of 65,535. That happens with 12 specific calculations. However, the answer is correct with some other computations, such as 65,535*1 and 16,383.75*4.

The problem is related to Excel’s handling of floating point numbers between 65,535 and 65,536. However, it is really only the display of the result that is affected. The result of the calculation stored in Excel’s memory is correct. If the result is multiplied by another number, the final result will come out right.

Microsoft has already produced a fix for the issue but is still testing it to make sure it doesn’t lead to other problems. “We take calculation in Excel very seriously and we do everything we can in order to ensure that calculation is correct for all cases,” wrote Gainer. He plans to post the fix on the Excel blog when it’s ready. For more information, go to http://blogs.msdn.com/excel/.

A Book for Every Business Library – Yours Free

admin — Wed, 12 Dec 2007 00:52:46 +0000

I just finished reading a book that belongs in every business person’s library. It’s not a textbook, and it’s not a book that’s hard to read. In fact, it was very easy to read, surprisingly. This book goes over some of the most fundamental aspects of business and accounting, but it sheds light on issues that entrepreneurs and business owners face every single day.

This book, “Don’t Bust the Budget, Toss It,” written by my good friend, Harvey Goldstein, is very well done and it’s very insightful. I’ve known Harvey for nearly 10 years — he is one of the most respected and well known accountants in Southern California. As the chairman of one of the largest accounting firms in the state for nearly 30 years, Harvey has seen it all. There isn’t much in the accounting and finance world that Harvey hasn’t experienced.

He has his finger on the pulse about how entrepreneurial companies work, and he’s quick to share those experiences, both positive and negative, in his book. He uses terrific examples. He uses language that is easy to understand, and he makes the point of how important it is for entrepreneurs to manage their money, their cash flow, and their life. Otherwise, everything that they work for will simply go down the drain.

I strongly recommend this book be a part of every business owner’s library. And to demonstrate how much I want you have it, I have arranged for you to get a PDF version for FREE. There are no strings attached. You can get it by clicking on the link www.upyourcashflow.com and following the instructions. Do it now before the offer expires.
