Explanation

A Two-Variable Data Table changes two inputs simultaneously.

Example

A business wants to compare:

  • Quantity
  • Selling Price

Quantity ↓ / Price →

₹400

₹500

₹600

₹700

50

       

100

       

150

       

200

       

Each cell represents the resulting profit for that combination.

Example

For:

Quantity = 100
Price = ₹500

Excel calculates the corresponding profit.

Steps

  1. Create the original formula model.
  2. Place one variable across the top row.
  3. Place the second variable down the first column.
  4. Put the result formula in the top-left corner.
  5. Select the entire table.
  6. Open Data → What-If Analysis → Data Table.
  7. Select Row input cell.
  8. Select Column input cell.
  9. Click OK.
