Very useful for business managers. The steps could be confusing at first for non-quants. But the datasets from www.duxbury.com makes following a breeze! I would recommend this book to all those interested in making better judgement using excel tools.

This review is from: Operations Analysis Using Microsoft Excel (Paperback)

This book is a little difficult to follow. The editoral review said that you only need some familiarity with excel but I found this to not be the case. You will need to be at least at the intermediate level with excel to follow some of the examples and many of the problems in the book. Some examples are unclear and no answers are given to the questions. However if you are able to follow the book, the practical applications will be benefical to managers.- Even though there are better applications than excel that managers can use.
