Subject: RE: Grain sales spreadsheet tied to crop budget spreadsheet?


Nearly unlimited potential in excel.

I use columns to separate for cash tax year and crop year accrual for profitability on both income and expenses. I flow it over to a cashflow statement and compare it to projected. I keep track of inventory with projected price but I update price only when I'm looking at it. If you really want to incorporate live market prices into a spreadsheet be prepared to learn to code in VBA. The juice isn't worth the squeeze for me.

It ends up being an exercise in organizing data as you will probably have 3 years of income / expenses in the same tax year due to prepaids and post January sales, but making your own spreadsheet can be a relatively easy task. Start simple and build complexity as useful to you.

Eidit Add: to OP: If you are comfortable with If/Then statements, you can really do a lot efficiently in excel. If not, you may be more interested in a paid for software as mentioned below.
