Calculation Spreadsheets

Please verify all spreadsheets.

The spreadsheets I create are very basic and not very well formatted. I do this mostly because it forces you to understand how the spreadsheet works and possibly create your own. Having said that, green text normally denotes that a value needs to be entered. Sometimes purple or orange may indicate that the value needs to be iterated. Sometimes blue is used to highlight a result.

I am currently trying to learn VBA (in my non-existent free time) and become better at creating spreadsheet calculations.  I mainly use TEDDS for calculations as it is faster (for me) and easier to follow the procedure.
