That's one of the problems. If your boss see this, probably he doubt about
yours skills.
The other problem, every conditional must be formated before each calculation,
like
=IF( ROUND( (<cell with 31000.99> - <cell with 32000.12>;2) = ROUND( <cell with
-999.13>;2); "OK"; "FAIL" ) );
That's a very heavy issue, a lot of time, memory, CPU resource, bugs, etc.</pre>
